You matter and are valued by the universe – not for what you have done or will do, but because you are here. Part of self-love is understanding that the universe loves you. You matter because your energy on this planet is important. You could live on top of a mountain, never seeing another person, but you matter just as much as any other person on the planet.
When you know you matter and have value, you know you are loved. I ask you to go into meditation to find out what you believe about mattering. Must you prove it through what you do? Must you earn it by what you receive in earnings? No, you matter because you are here – period. And nothing you can say or do will ever change that truth. Do you need other people to love you to feel loved? That is not self-love -that is putting your power into some else’s hands. Self-love is finding that you matter and are valued whether another person feels this way toward you.

Until next time, be the light the world needs and have a love for all.
