pssst...approval seekers beware. Paying attention and responding to what rises is the place of healing. The type that will rewrite old stories and heal inner wounds, but without some semblance of personal awareness for these things, the narrative is preempted by old messaging and we return to established patterns of self-protective behavior patterns, disconnected from our core.
The way you put it, how belonging to ourselves first resonates as so very true. In what ways have I am abandoned myself and in what ways do I continue to act unkindly towards myself? Your words remind me of Julia Cameron’s when she talks about the need for other people’s approval is always about the need for our own self-approval. I will think on these thoughts as I head into the weekend♥️
Some things a can be difficult to see in ourselves when we are alone. Being with others—that mirror—can lead us to finding part of our truths, that safe space we yearn for. ❤️

Such wise words from Julia Cameron. And such wisdom in the question you present. Thank you for sharing this. I hope the weekend is a good one!

So very grateful 🙏♥️
I'm finding bravery in the bigger spaces after feeling safety in the small ones. I'm so very grateful for our small messy safe space.
