Everyone want to be loved and accepted!
It's hard enough growing, learning and making transitions in life, the last thing we need is others judging and picking us apart. People can be mean and not accepting, that can make being yourself pretty hard. People always say be yourself, but then they judge you for being yourself. I say no thank you to mixed signals! Sometimes we are also our biggest critics, we pick ourselves apart until we get to a low self-esteem.
AUTHENTIC SELF
Many of us have entertained the notion that if we change or conform people would accept us. I don't know about anyone else, but pretending to be someone else is exhausting. There is enough going on in life, who has time for keeping up an act. True happiness cannot truly be achieved when NOT living in one's truth and being authentic.
FEELING SAFE
Places and people matter!
Safety is an important factor in achieving self-worth. Often, we are trying to fit into places and with people who are not for us. Safe places is a space where we feel honored and encouraged to be our best self. People who are patient, compassionate, loving and empathetic help enhance our lives. There is no need to stress or pretend to be someone we are not. Although, we cannot live in a bubble away from the rest of the world, having the right support system will help us grow. Experiencing growth will help us handle the day to day stress of the world. There is safety and peace in being ourselves.
