All the external adoration, respect and adulation in the word, can't drown out the internal voices that tell us, we are not good enough and unworthy of; happiness, love and an abundant life. When we need others to tell us were amazing, worthy and lovable, in order to feel good about ourselves, it is never enough. It goes into the bottomless pit where our inherent self-worth should be. It may feel like we are reaching out to receive love, but in actuality, we are seeking external noise to help drown out our negative core beliefs. Love blossoms from the inside out. That is why it is so important to do the work necessary to heal our emotional wounds, to love ourselves and stand strong in who we are. Only then, are we truly free to give and receive love, unconditionally and in abundance. .Jaeda DeWalt
About This Quote
We all have a deep desire to feel worthy and love ourselves. When we feel unworthy and unloved, we will look for ways to make ourselves worthy and loved. We do this through our behavior, through our words and through our actions. It is very important to recognize the negative voices inside of us that tell us we are not worthy of love.
When we recognize these voices, we can choose to listen to them or not. In order to get rid of the negative voices that tell you you are not good enough, you need to find a way to accept yourself completely. Acceptance is about letting yourself be who you are, not who you wish you were or who other people want you to be.
To accept yourself completely is a lifelong journey.
