Love YourSelf

Once your cup is full of unconditional love for SELF, it will overflow to others but if you are empty, there is nothing more to give, but resentment! ~Yvonne Cloete

Slowly but surely we are beginning to realize that we are not just earthly human beings having a spiritual experience but spiritual energy beings, having a human experience. But what is the difference between being human and being spiritual?

When we are more human than spiritual, we experience love more fiercely from within our emotional bodies. When we are more spiritual than human, we experience love in a knowing that we are love, and we will BEcome still and at peace in this knowing.

The love that we feel for our partners, our family, and our friends from a spiritual perspective are within the love that we feel for ourself first because our cup will be filled with a love that needs no emotion to know it exists. This love will then spill over peacefully with no drama to them, and they would want to be around us, be with us every moment.

When we are not filled with love for ourself first, we will not be at peace. We would want to give all our love to them, filling their cups first and our cup will be empty, and we will feel depleted, tired, lonely, unloved, and a victim. We will react from a lack of love, wondering why they don't love us the same, and we will "fight" to be loved, resulting in everyone we love, running away from us.

A human would want to serve and love others for periods of time, and put self last, in a search for love. A spiritual being would love and put self first, to serve and love others all the time.
