What’s the point of being known for all of the greatness you do for everyone, if you are a self-depreciating individual?
Karma is a real energetic force that lives in our being like all other realms. When you think about bad karma, you typically point out the people who have done wrong…like the unforgivable kind.
Would you consider yourself to be a good person, even if you are not good to yourself?
That’s unforgivable, right?
Think about it this way. You’re a nice person. You will give your last dollar to someone. In fact you’ll give whatever it takes to please other people… And your life is a mess because of that. YOU forgot just how important you were while you gave yourself away to everything else. We all know that one person who truly didn’t deserve the cards that were handed to them. In my life, that seems to be a lot of people. One thing I have learned is that people that think of everyone else never get as far as they should. Why is that? Why do horrible situations happen to good people?
Some good people in this world do not know how to be good to themselves. Most of the time, the past has been so horrible to them, that they want to make it right, by fixing other people, instead of the self. Altruism is a pure and beautiful thing in this world. In fact, we would live in euphoria if we all thought about other people, as well as how to respond to situations based on the comprehension of others. Yet, we live in a world with a lot of…varying differences.
Good people of this universe, stop being sucked dry by the world around you. You deserve great things, but how will you ever achieve these great things if you don’t save any worthy energy for yourself?
How many wealthy people do you know that give everything they have to others? Well… they wouldn’t be wealthy if that were the case. Giving is wonderful. But consider paying yourself first.
Give yourself a day off when you’re drained. Ask for help. Save for a few rainy days. Give yourself a hug; and tell yourself that this world is made to help you! Surround yourself with beings who want to help you grow, not take from you all of the time. Vampires in human bodies are a very real thing! (Check out my article on modern day vampirism.)
When was the last time you looked yourself in the mirror and said “I love you”?
As awesome as you are, you only have the capability of seeing all of that awesome sauce you behold if you truly want to see it for yourself! There’s no better time to start, then now!
I spend a lot of time loving and appreciating who I am, so I can love everyone else in a more wholesome way. Sometimes I write poems about myself, just to remind myself of how powerful and beautiful I am! I stare into my eyes each day and admire the person I become in every moment of my life. When I’m feeling bad, and need to isolate myself, I’ll sit on the ground outside, and point out the wonderful things that I have, as to outweigh my heavy feelings. Then I find with a more positive mindset, I can see most situations more clearly. Other times I may need the perspective of another open minded companion.
We’re all working to see a better outcome. In fact, we are the better outcome! Look at what you have done for those around you! The universe has not forgotten you!
What if you forgot about yourself? You might just miss out on the great things that are already passing you because you forgot that the roses couldn’t be admired if you weren’t there. It’s time to redirect your focus on you. Pay yourself first. Feel gratitude, love, forgiveness. Sometimes you need to forgive who you once were to let go of what made you feel undeserving.
Indulge in the sensation of actual peace! It already exists in you. You didn’t need any other tools but your own mind. When you can achieve that feeling within, you will understand what karmic forces are ready for you now.
