Loving yourself...
General | Posted 11 years agoLove yourself before loving others. I often find myself reflecting on what it means to love someone, what it means to be in love, and what it means to love yourself. I think about these things because I sincerely and genuinely love someone, and I owe it to myself and to my lover to review what it means to be in a loving relationship, to be truly "in love". I find that many times people get into relationships for the wrong reasons. Whether it is loneliness, comfort to ease away pain or insecurities, obtaining true love will never result from any of these. People need to realize that regardless of what relationship they go into, if they don't accept themselves it will always end up the same. Time will always pass and if you are in a relationship for the wrong reasons, things will become stale, your relationship will decline and you will be finding yourself trying to hold on, to not give up just yet. Everyone has insecurities, skeletons and demons they want to lay to rest, but if you can't grow as a person you will never be able to accept yourself and face those demons. I honestly find self-growth to be very attractive, someone who is able to recognize their faults and work towards bettering themselves. It's not all about changing who you are, but about learning something new and adapting for the better. Nobody is perfect, but there is a fine line between denying reality and settling for less to temporarily feel good. Start living without regrets, only live with learned lessons.Venting

Too often, relationships suffer because of underling individual issues that bring out the worst in both parties. Expecting people to change themselves for the better can be a reliable thing at times, but sometimes we need to look at ourselves, and ask ourselves what we can do as people to progress. I think in our society today we as people have become more and more self centered and ignorant. So many people get caught up in this idea that it's everyone else that needs work to make their lives easier, never thinking about what they can do to help themselves and to help others they interact with. We learn by observing, but everyone is more interested in judging other people than actually taking a step back and observing themselves. Think about your own issues and habits. What can you work on to change? In terms with a relationship, I think you need a little bit of both. I'm not perfect, but at least I will keep trying to better myself. I think that's all you can really ask for. What kind of person do you want to be? Quack
