Babes!!
I recently had a one-person party... aka Pity Party. Once I was AWARE that it was a one-person party... aka Pity Party, I said to myself, "Self... what is it that you need?" I, of course, went through my vitals: Do you need to move your body? Do you need some water? Are you hungry? Do you need some sunlight? Are you tired? I still wasn't sure why I had thrown myself this party. Then I said, "Self, do you just need some love?" And that was it. I figured it out. I needed some love.
I started to think about the five love languages:
Positive Affirmations
Physical Touch
Quality Time
Service
Gifts
I realized that we have the ability to give ourselves the five love languages. I had never thought of it this way. I always thought that I would need someone else to provide these FOR me. I had relied on others to affirm my awesomeness. I had relied on other people to do nice things for me, to want to spend time with me...
While having people in our lives to tell us we are doing a good job or to give us flowers is super nice, sitting around waiting for that is not advised! Do it for your dang self! Rather than throwing a pity party for ourselves, we can throw a positive affirmation party for ourselves. It's far more fun!
