In Life, I Deserve To Be Loved, Respected And Valued

I know that in my life, I deserve to be loved, valued and respected, and yet I am not selfish or pretentious.

I want my soul to laugh and my heart to feel comforted that I have found her place in the world.

Saying these words to ourselves and out loud is not an act of madness, let alone pride. Declaring and convincing ourselves that we deserve to be loved is something enriching.

Being respected and valued is not a privilege: it is a right that we all have. 

We all deserve to be cherished by our own, starting with family, friends and no doubt a spouse who is able to give us conscious, mature and reciprocal love.

• It is self-esteem that tells us we deserve respect. No one should discriminate against you or your words, because you know that words that offend and that lie hurt. So you avoid people who say them, and that’s why you protect yourself and set limits.

• Self-esteem is also the one that reminds you that you deserve to be valued for what you do, for who you are and that it is not an act of selfishness.
  Because whoever values ​​your presence shows you that he loves you, because to give value to people is to give them a position in the world, it is to recognize them and to give them a voice, a presence, appreciation. … 

To love and be loved

Just as we need to know what limits we need to put in our life to prevent our rights from being affected, it is important to remember that just as we ask to be loved, valued and respected, we need to be able to ‘offer the same.

There are people in life who only know how to ask and constantly raise the level of their requirements: to be recognized, to be listened to, to have priority over others, to be loved above all, beyond even. of the self-esteem of those around them. They are people who devour and destroy.
