How neatly these newly found words apply.
Be Well

Living

“Is not this the true romantic feeling - not to desire to escape life, but to prevent life from escaping you.”
-Thomas Wolfem

We can live life “in love” all the time. When we love our life, and ourselves, we are filled to the brim with joy and peace. We overflow with wonder that spills out to the world and makes it a better place to be.
-Lissa Coffey

Each one of us is Life personalized. We are each one of us, Life as a person., so now, each one of us contains within ourselves all the intelligence, the power, the faculties and the tools for the expression of Life. Every soul has access to these tools, but a decision to so choose must be faced. The choice is ours to make.
Poor choices, is where the problem commences.
In ones younger days, poor choices can be every day occurrences. Once past a certain age though, the whole picture changes. The monkey load on ones back keeps building up filters, that couples with those earlier experiences, that may contribute to unwise choices.
Verbal themes of childhood can wreak havoc if not recognized for what they were, once we start making adult choices. How one dressed, spoke, and / or was rejected or accepted, make for highly influencing life filters and loss of self-esteem. Of course self-love turns to things like hate, frustration and other not so good, goodies under those condition. In another vein though, self-esteem can become lead to ?I?m better than you? attitudes. There needs to be a common sense, balanced middle path here, or a high self-esteem, well blended with self-love and love of others, other wise it becomes a rocky road.
Love thy neighbors, as thy self, as mentioned by Jesus, becomes a problem if one has no self-love. Having no self-love, places one at the mercy of another, that may be suffering from the same malady you are experiencing due to a lack of self-love or self-esteem. If you can saw a board in half, or pound in nail without bending it, rejoice. Love yourself for it. The same applies to all activities in life. So you ruin a few boards, or bend a few nails, thats all part of lifes learning curve, and the fumble will also pass, if you let it.
Just learn to laugh and smile about it.

The inner worth and joy will reflect outwards, leading to shared loving relations.
