The ability to see goodness and beauty in oneself is linked to seeing it in others.
My own journey through childhood PTSD and adult struggles taught me that much of my misery stemmed from my inability to connect with and care for others. Real change came when I stopped making excuses and started empathizing and caring and letting myself be vulnerable – internally and also externally. Eventually, they become a sort of feedback loop- feeding into and pushing on one another.
I’ve experienced both successful and unsuccessful attempts at change, and each time I’ve grown in my capacity to love and care, I’ve felt a profound shift in myself. Progress in loving others has led to loving myself, creating a positive cycle of growth. This journey has taught me to trust and to love, ultimately leading to a deeper understanding and acceptance of myself and the ones I love!
