Know Yourself

Before you can share love you have to love yourself.

A true master of the self has learned to accept and love oneself unconditionally.

Realizing and understanding the value their life purpose in this existence.

This is true compassion.

I wish that I could achieve it but all I can do is to continue the search.

The different battles we attract in our lives are creations way of presenting your liberation to you.

When I understood this I was able to face my fears with delight at the new lessons I would acquire in my quest to find my true nature.

I began to realize that I was the director and that each day was like a film that I had the power to create. No budget or film crew. But I had to show up to work and write the script, shoot the film, create the characters and scenes.

Most importantly I had to realize that I was the director. Everything seems impossible when you think that everyone else controls the film of life but when you realize that you are the director or creator or artist then you overstand that you control what you create.

Consciously or unconsciously we are always attracting our own issues to ourselves as well as our desires. If we deal with them they go away and when we don’t they hang around and control how we tread.
