When I loved myself enough

Three pictures here, one from a book with the same title and the other two from a blog called teabaginit. The book is in one of the therapy rooms I work in. Its cover is worn and used, I like that. I like the words too, When I love myself enough, i will? Try saying them to your self and see what answers you get?

One of my other favourite quotes is – by Marianne Williamson, from her book Return to Love.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
