Self Love Requires Honesty | #SLS

I've come to realize, the hard way, that I've had and still have a lot of healing to do! Self Love is not an overnight thing *insert Percy Sledge song*. It takes time to reach a comfortable level of contentment with self. It's a journey; one of upward toil but one of positive growth. In our journey of Self Love, it is integral that we seek to know ourselves, accept who we are and live freely in our truth.  In seeking to know and embrace our truest selves, a process of self reflection and introspection helps. The trauma; experiences that we go through have fashioned us into the persons that we are today. Our personalities, our self esteem; the way we interact with others, our imposed standards, our expectations are all influenced by the way we see ourselves; by the way we think and feel about ourselves.

I've been on an Inspiration high this year! It's been a habit of mine to continuously be seeking to learn, grow and live a fulfilling life with all the information that comes my way. I've actually been watching interviews and videos from entrepreneurs, people who have been successful in their careers and even people who have lots of experience with life and love. It's so easy to see the negative posts, comments, news reports, twitter feeds and shows. I believe that we must make it an active part of our day to screen out the unwanted and highlight the positive. By this, I don't mean to avoid the news and refrain from social media, I mean that you should decide what you allow to take up your time and to rule your mind. One way I do this is by ensuring that I follow pages, people and hashtags that only share positivism. Another way is by avoiding aimlessly scrolling for long periods of time. With eyes of discernment, I managed to surf the waves o...
