Love is acceptance.

“Love is wholeness- and love is healing.”– Robert Holden, PhD

Love is ready for you. Open yourself to it. Invite love into your life. We need love to go through difficult times. Love knows no boundaries. It connects everyone together. Love does not separate us. It brings the world together. If you want to attract love into your life, you must master the art of love.

“What we love, we respect.”

What we love, we trust. What we love, respect. What we love, we protect. What we love, we celebrate. What we love, we heal. What we love, we nourish. What we love, we promote.

But you can’t love others without loving yourself. You are first. You should love yourself first. If you don’t love yourself, you can’t love others.

Love is action. If you love someone, show it to the person. If you love yourself, show it to yourself. Don’t preach love, show love. Live your love. Breathe your love. And love yourself, no matter what.

Love is not about preaching; it is about accepting. It is about accepting yourself, no matter how you look. Where there is no acceptance, there is no love. Love cannot survive in an environment where people are not respected. Love cannot survive a place where people live in fear. If you want to cast out fear, just love. Love casts out fear.

Love is about you, not about them. The only way to love others is to love yourself.

How To Live Your Life For Yourself

Ralph Waldo Emerson famously said, “It is easy to live for other; everybody does. I call on you to live for yourselves.” We live for others, but not for ourselves. Why is that? Why do we live for others? Why do we allow people to tell us how to live our lives? Why can’t we take charge of our lives? Why do we allow people to treat us badly?

You tell people how to treat you. According to Dr. Phil, “We teach people how to treat us.” If you don’t want people to treat you badly, treat yourself with love and kindness. When you treat yourself with kindness and love, people will treat you with kindness and love. You are in charge of your life. Live what you preach. Show people how you want to be treated. If not, they will take control of your life.

You are in control of your life. To take control of your life, you must listen to yourself, to your inner voice. It is important to listen to your inner voice because you know everything about yourself. You know what you have been through in your life. You know what you don’t know. You know what you want to know. No one knows you better than yourself. Only you can tell the world what is going on inside your head. You know why you are behaving the way you are. You know what you want from life. In other words, you are your own master.

Don’t worry about what other people are thinking about you. You are who you are. To know yourself, you must live for yourself. You must live the life you love to live, not the life that other people want you to live. No matter what, don’t forget yourself. Be kind to yourself. Be kind to your soul. Don’t abuse your soul. Trust yourself. Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “Trust thyself: every heart vibrates to that iron string.” To get things done, you must trust yourself. Remember, “You are in control of your car.” Drive safely!
