A Relationship with Yourself

Off lately, I have heard a lot of people speak about self love. How important it is for everyone to find, understand and have a meaningful relationship with himself/herself.

Honestly, up until now, I really could not understand this phenomena or to be more honest, was really not into it. But as they say, Once you have seen something or tasted the nectar, you would want to continue. You would want to really keep going since it feeds your soul. It brings a sense of little joy into your life. That's exactly what happened with me.

I discovered writing in the middle of my career crisis. I found a way out to get rid of my negative emotions, anger, frustration and deep dissatisfaction. And guess what, I found a new way, a new path to express myself better, a path which I own and can be all by myself. I am a camera shy person, so You Tube did not suit. But you know what after discovering writing, I have a found a new form of self love.

With each passing day, I am getting better and better at it. Writing can also be a form of self love sounds strange but true. You know why :

1) Its forces you to think about yourself, your goals, which direction are you headed, to bringing in the so called "ME Time" in this distracted world. It allows you to reflect on your actions.

2) It brings a missing "BALANCE" in our life. Something which we all long for. Since all the negative emotions gets drained out of your body through writing, it brings a sense of peace and joy within.

3) It gives wings to you. A NEW YOU is born. Yes! that's absolutely true. Your words find meaning, your hidden power comes to forte. You find a deep sense of self confidence within yourself which no life coach or personality development coach can teach you.

4) It has allowed you the liberty to be yourself. A new You filled with hope for the future, filled with dreams and desires to make a better living and contribute to society. This demands freedom of speech and expression. That liberty to express is fulfilled through writing.

5) A way to impact lives of others. You writing has helped you heal your emotional truma. Now this healed person can go out in the world and say lovingly that yes writing has helped change my life for better. It can change yours too. For some who believe in his words, its actually a way to make an impact through writing and guide others on their life path.

6) An Artist is Born. It allows making of an Artist working on its craft. Yes, would not have believed it. Since I am truly experiencing this, that's why saying it. It allows you to unlock the creativity that resides within you. A Storyteller, a writer, a narrator is there within all of us. Only thing we haven't discovered it yet. Writing helps you find that hidden potential within you.

7) Build a community of fan base or followers: Last but not the least, Your writing works for you. You build a loyal community of followers or fan base who are just in love with what you do. You work has the ability to transforms and impact the lives of these people.

So now don't you thinking Writing is a form of self love, a way to heal yourself, to build a relationship with yourself, a way to find your true path, a real game changer for you.

Still if you haven't understood. Your bad luck! But I would suggest write everyday for once the crap is out of your system. Your writing will improve and you will find your own light.

That's it. Happy Writing!
