Hiya Rosie!

First I wanted to thank you for asking that question, since it is allowing me to stop and consider what I feel self love is. Much of my life was spent trying to gain favor or approval or even love from others.  Acting as I “should” instead of according to my own soul’s imperative. I suppose, for me, my greatest act of self love was to stop sacrificing my own enjoyment of life in order to achieve those aforementioned goals, which I now perceive as false. People are changable, their wants are changable, and they come and go as easily as autumn leaves. Some people were not even acting with integrity, and so did not deserve all I struggled to bestow. Can you even hear your soulsong? Listen for that unreasonable twang of joy in places, with people and while doing activities. When something resonates for you, hold that in your mind as a clue. Dont fret if things change, allow yourself to change and grow as well. The very fact that you seek to define it tells me clearly you are on your way. Don’t let anyone else tell you where north is on your inner compass.

self love : remove the negative, be it person place or thing. No matter status or station. Compound the joy where ever you find it. (without bringing harm – no axe murdering as a hobby!)

Much love your way-

Jory
