It’s Valentines Day! The day of LOVE. The day when you really go all out to show the one you love just how much you love them. Surely this can’t be a one off occurrence can it? Shouldn’t we be doing that every day? But it Valentines Day TODAY, so let’s do it today.
So let me know in the comments how you show that special person in your life just how much they mean to you, and what you’ve got planned for Valentines Day.
But in all that you do, don’t forget the most important person of all, YOU! It’s not just important to show our partners we love them, but we must also practice Self-Love. You cannot give from an empty cup. And what of those who are single? No excuse for not using this Valentines Day to show an act of love to yourself.
So I know today you’ve probably got a million things on your mind so let me just make this a really short little Blog about what it means to be in a committed relationship with yourself!
The term “Committed Relationship” implies that BOTH people must be committed to each other, but I’m here to tell you that no relationship can ever reach the true heights that are possible unless both people are also in a committed loving relationship with Themselves.
Unless you have Self-Love you’re never really complete, so whether you consciously realise it or not, you’ll always sub-consciously be needing to ‘take’ from the other person to try and make yourself complete. And taking from others to make us complete is like pouring water into a bottomless cup. It will never be enough, because no one can ever complete you. You are the only person that can make you complete.
When both people in a relationship have healthy Self-Love, they are complete. They then flow over with giving, then and only then can a relationship reach its true potential. Even if you’re single, having healthy Self-Love will impact everyone who you interact with.
So let me know in the comments, firstly how you plan to show the one you love how much you love them this Valentines Day. But also let me know how you demonstrate to yourself, that you love, respect and appreciate yourself for being the wonderful and amazing person that you are?
