What's to Love?

By le Daoust

" Miracles come from love, are created by love, and are magnetized to

you through love.

A state of love is a state of receptivity to the abundance of the

universe. The more love you send out to the world, the more abundance

and miracles you will receive in return. " Sonaya Roman & Duane Packer,

Creating Money, Keys to Abundance

To start actively creating miracles in our lives, to attract the love

we want in life, we must start by loving ourselves... and that's often

easier said than done, especially when life has delivered a few hard

punches below the belt. When you're feeling alone and lonely, beaten

up by your circumstances, when your life is mess, the big question is

" what's to love? "

The answer is easy - love ALL of it, including the troubles, the pain

and grief... be grateful that you are alive and growing, learning

through each experience, and SAY SO! Love your flaws, as well as your

assets, they make you you, unique, special -yes, even the warts and

the battle scars...

When folks are unhappy with their appearance - or their lives - I take

them to a mirror and ask them to specify exactly what it is they so

dislike about themselves, what would they change. Once we get the

negatives out of the way, I ask them to notice what they like, what

about their appearance or their life choices makes them special....

and that's when we can really get to work. Focusing on what you love

makes it easier to deal with and move past what you don't. A simple

example... A young woman thinks she isn't very pretty, complains of

her beady little eyes, but she does have one great asset - good

bones..... with a few strokes of a make-up brush her eyes look much

larger, she sees a pretty face smiling back at her from the mirror -

and all of a sudden this person can think about loving the way she

looks... Love opens the doors to new perspectives and solutions.

One of the most important ways of loving yourself is to forgive

yourself your mistakes, accept your flaws... again, it's about taking

a different, more loving perspective. When you see the value in your

perceived faults and the purpose in your choices, even the not so

great ones, when you choose to learn and grow from having faced the

challenges, it becomes easier to let go of the resentment, guilt or

frustrations of the past... to love yourself means extending

compassion, loving understanding also to yourself - and then choosing

to change, to make yourself better in every way...

Miracles come from your love - for yourself!

Did you know? smiling brings about physiological changes that make you

feel happy, and frowning bring about changes that can make you feel

sad and grumpy, so Smile, Smile, Smile!
