Deserving Love

We all deserve to be loved. Nobody is perfect. Sometimes we put high expectations on ourselves, at least, I do. Who would love my muffin top midriff and my freckles on my nose? Who would love my habit of making a To Do list everyday? Who would love me because I tend to snort when I laugh?

I let these thoughts churn though my head, turning them into major shortcomings when thinking about having a romantic relationship. I create them into fatal flaws, but they are not. And, I am sabotaging myself. Recently, I have realized that one of my biggest hurtle in finding love is to realize I can be loved. I started saying this to myself everyday “I am lovable.” It has helped.

Trust you can be loved. You are lovable, just the way you are.
