I am worth it

Wednesday, October 18, 2006

Back when I was just spending, spending and more spending, I kept telling myself that I could buy something because I was worth it, and because it would make me happy.

Now I have a home full of clutter, and a body that carries around a lot of clutter in the form of extra weight. All because I deemed myself worth of things, stuff, bad food, everything that is clutter now.

Realizing this made me sad, but then it hit me, I had totally misdefined "I am worth it". Through this misdefinition I deemed myself worthy of stuff, not worthy of what really matters.

Worth is not about things, it is not about two mcD meals a week, it is about deeming yourself good enough for what really matters, like health, love and happiness.

And it is about knowing you are worthy to live in a home with the room to grow, and where you can express yourself as you are.

"I am worth it" is now about spending energy on myself, on spending time with me, getting to know me, and finding out what I am truly worthy of. 

So... what are you worthy of?
