Love Yourself First
Only Then Can You Help Others
My last article addressed the meaning of true power, what it is and isn’t, and how to live in your power. This article is connected in that you cannot live in your power if you don’t first acknowledge your greatness and value.
We are all here right now for at least three reasons. First, souls come to Earth to experience things we can only experience in physical form which usually leads us to the lessons we need to learn in order to grow spiritually. Second, whenever a soul enters a body and lives a lifetime on Earth, there is a purpose involved that benefits others. It’s part of the deal. Some of us are aware of our purpose, some are going crazy trying to pin it down, some complete it without ever knowing during their lifetime, and others figure it out along the way, always when they are supposed to, and go to work on accomplishing it.
All of these paths are right, depending on the person. There’s no need to worry you’ll fail, as that’s impossible. You planned your life so that it would lead to where you needed to go. Even if something happened to prevent you from accomplishing your purpose, you would simply carry it over to the next lifetime. There is no judgment except self-judgment, which is unnecessary and senseless.
Lastly, we all volunteered to be here at this time to help the Earth and the collective people to ascend to higher dimensions. How do we do that? The first step is always to love yourself. We’re here to be of service, but we can’t serve a greater purpose until we first know ourselves, deeply and clearly.
If you don’t value yourself, it’s nearly impossible to value others. You might envy others, you might be jealous of others, or you might fall into the trap of victimhood, but all of these things add up to being stuck, and you can’t move further until you address the problem, which leads back to a lack of self-awareness.
We judge others as we judge ourselves. If you cheat and lie, you assume others will, too. If you are loving and honest, you assume others are, as well. That doesn’t mean our judgments are correct, it’s just how we perceive things. We have a responsibility to help others, but how can we help others if we cannot even help ourselves?
