RE: Permission to be selfish?

in Reflections11 months ago

This reminder is filled with kindness. It would appear that one doesn't need to be reminded to take care of self but in reality, not everyone remembers and just like your daughter we keep on giving, even more than we receive.
It's important to be self aware and know that we are worthy of care from others and even from ourselves.

No matter how selfless we are, if we don't take care of ourselves, we won't even be okay enough to help others in the long run. Hence, self-care is an integral part of selflessness.

Well said!

And these bodies and minds that we host are GIFTS - and we are supposed to be good stewards with these gifts!

I don't think God would appreciate it very much if we took His gift and ran them down into destruction! right? hehehe

so that's a good perspective to have also! Treasure these temples that we have! :)
