When I was a teenager, I was highly preoccupied with the concept of love and the idea of falling in love. It was one of the main things I would often daydream about. However, the problem was that I had no idea what love truly meant.
As I matured, I came to realize that love is more than just a feeling. It is a choice to embrace someone's imperfections while also accepting your own.
After realizing my shortcomings, I started to believe that I was undeserving of love, as I struggled to accept both myself and others with all their flaws. However, I have come to realize that punishing myself due to my lack of understanding is not a sustainable way to live.
In order to open myself up to the possibility of love, I must begin somewhere. For me, that starting point involves looking at myself in the mirror every morning and confidently and intentionally repeating the following affirmation: "I deserve love."
I believe that this affirmation will set the tone for the day and attract the love that I deserve.
