~ Affirmation #2 - I am creating true relationships and lasting connections by being grateful for each encounter, providing support without compromising my boundaries and holding space for us to evolve." I wrote this affirmation while thinking about the complexities of relationships and how self-love is a direct reflection of how we love others. I am a firm believer in self-preservation and protecting my peace by properly managing my circle of influence but I understand fully that my relationships and how I show up in them are a direct reflection of how I show love to myself. If I'm constantly telling myself that I am inadequate or lacking in certain areas, I will feel that I have the authorization to speak those same inequities into the lives of others. This is completely false. No one has the right to infuse their personal self-doubt on anyone else. Affirm to Nurture Your Relationships.
Decide today that you will speak better to yourself, think more highly about who you are and begin to value your own opinion. By doing so, you create a nurturing foundation that will be the basis for all of your relationships
Set boundaries that create positive encounters. Make a decision to stop interjection your unsolicited opinions in other people's lives. Nine times out of ten, nobody asked you...so stop. Leave something to the imagination.
Express gratitude when someone shares their time, energy, knowledge and love with youRemember: Your thoughts, words and actions should be for your greatest good and to be of service to others. Hold thoughts and actions toward others in the same regard. Create your peace, ~Melissa
