What I Learned About Love That Can HELP YOU Too!

When I first started dating, I’d go crazy worrying about whether or not a man would like me.
I was forgetting how amazing I was . . . probably because in those days I wasn’t sure I was.
And even worse, I was giving my power away to someone I didn’t even know worrying about what he thought about me.
It’s so easy to do, especially when you read men’s profiles that say things like . . . “I want a professional woman who is petite and thin with blonde hair.”
After reading something like this, it’s so easy to critically start assessing yourself.
Maybe your body is curvy now because things have shifted, courtesy of menopause.
You know you have a great job but you’re not sure it’s what this guy would want and your hair is brown . . . but you could add blonde highlights if that’s what he’d like.
If you read enough profiles where men are describing specific types of women they’re looking for, you can end up feeling like you aren’t enough.
BTW . . . Reading women’s magazines can make you feel this way as well with all the unrealistic photoshopping that is done.
TODAY . . . I’m here to tell you that YOU ARE ENOUGH!
You’ve just forgotten and I want you to be able to bring your greatness back to you.
Recently, I heard this short poem that touched my heart and I wanted to share it with you because it’s so easy to forget how AMAZING you really are . . . AND YOU ARE AMAZING.
(And if this poem resonates with you, I hope you’ll pass it along to the women you treasure in your life to remind them how special they are too.)
Who Are YOU?
You are . . . WOMAN
You are . . . Beautiful
You are . . . Powerful
You are . . . Sensitive
You are . . . Loving
You are a unique GEM
You are worthy of LOVE and AFFECTION
You are . . . never too much and you are always ENOUGH!
You are . . . AMAZING
Just the way you ARE
You are . . . the most stunning of all God’s creations
You are . . . worth more than you could ever imagine
You ARE . . . Worth more than the number on the scale, the size of your jeans, more than the price tags on your clothes or the shoes you wear.
YOU are . . . Worth more than the amount in your bank account, or the car you drive, or even the number of friends you have on social media.
Your WORTH surpasses ALL things on this planet and beyond Because in the eyes of your creator YOU ARE LOVED!
So today to all our sisters, mothers, aunts, daughters, grandmothers, grand-daughters, cousins and friends across the GLOBE . . .
Remember today and every day.
You are . . . perfect and whole exactly the way you are.
You are . . . WOMAN
You are . . . Beautiful
You are . . . Powerful
You are . . .Sensitive
And You are . . . LOVED!
Poem by Mary Morrisey and Jennifer Jimenez
A great exercise to do is to record this on your phone and listen to it every day.
It will help you continue to remember just how awesome you really are.
Have a wonderful week and be sure to look in the mirror and really appreciate the woman you see looking back at you.
Believing in you!
Big hugs ~
