When you really love yourself, the absence of others will stop hurting you. You will not miss the love that was not reciprocated, because you will understand that your value does not depend on the acceptance of others.
You will not mourn the loss of a friend who moved away, for you will recognize that their path was not yours. You will not feel bad for those who do not respond to your messages, because you will understand that your time is valuable and should not be wasted on those who do not value you.
And, above all, you will not miss the one who broke your heart, because you will know that their departure was a gift. A gift that allowed you to discover your own strength, resilience and love.
Self-love is the most powerful of all. It teaches you that you don't need anyone else to be happy and that you can feel complete, even in loneliness.
Therefore, love your self, dear one. Accept your flaws, virtues and scars. Cherish your moments of weakness as well as your moments of strength. Embrace your story, with all its ups and downs.
When you truly love yourself, you won't need anyone else to make you whole. True fulfillment comes from within, and by cultivating that self-love, you will free yourself from the need for external approval.
You will then be able to live authentically and enjoy life to the fullest, without depending on others to validate your existence. Love for yourself is the first step towards a full and satisfying life.
