Much has been said about self-love.
For me, self-love isn’t about always putting ourselves first or never pleasing or sacrificing for others.
🥰It’s about identifying the things we know, deep down, we will regret not pursuing at the end of our lives and making steady progress toward fulfilling them. In other words, self-love is refusing to compromise on those things that truly matter to us.
🙏It’s about honoring the commitments we make to our future selves, recognizing what will bring us true fulfillment, and prioritizing those pursuits with intention. When we act in alignment with those deeper desires, we practice a form of self-love that doesn’t feel selfish.
✨In this way, self-love becomes a guiding force, ensuring that we live authentically, without regrets, and that the most important pieces of our lives are not sacrificed.
