I am….

I LOVE MYSELF! What do I mean when I say that? Do I love how I look? Or how kind I am? Or how I feel? Or how intelligent I am?

I am not my body; I am not my emotions nor my thoughts nor my actions….. I am way beyond all of these…these are but just aspects of who I am. And it is who I am that I love! I love my body as I love my child, taking care of it sometimes even neglecting it, feeding it and loving it in spite of all its flaws…embracing it and accepting it unconditionally. My thoughts and my emotions are instruments I use to interact in this world; they help me express who I am. They are not me…. They are just outcomes…sometimes good …sometimes not do good….but I accept them and own them like a piece of art, all things contributing to make something beautiful eventually. My experiences and actions are just fragments of how I deal with the world.

I am what cannot be given form in words or imagination. I am what holds all these aspects together and loves them like her children. I nurture them. I am the whole that they are a part of. I am formless. I cannot be contained in definitions. I am the discovery within and the light without. I am that I am!
