Currently, I’m doing all of that for my inner little girl. After just a few months of daily practice, I feel profound love and compassion towards all versions of me; all the past versions that got locked up in the basement and ignored were finally released and are receiving the love and care they desperately needed. I’m shy to acknowledge it publicly, because I know I’ll be perceived as arrogant, egotistical, or even selfish. But the truth is I really adore myself. I love myself so much that I can honestly say that I’m my favorite person in the entire world. It’s taken years to be able to say and feel it deeply. It feels like I’m saying it and doing this “work” both for myself AND for all those that didn’t feel safe to love themselves, those that came before me that were born and forced into codependency, just to survive, just to receive a few bread crumbs of “love.” This inner work means everything to me. I can’t be fully alive in my humanness, in my soul essence, in my body, if I ignored this work that I believe needs to be done, for the betterment of humanity. Why should we do this work? Because “love” will always be conditional, transactional, empty. That’s not real love. I’m interested in REAL LOVE, the love that brings peace, deep connection to self, understanding, compassion, the love that embraces authenticity, freedom, and growth. What else is more important?
What is real love to you?
