I keep trying this every night and every night it is VERY hard for me to think of "loving me". What I have compromised on is imagining the earth loves me for all my recycling, that the moss and snuggly ground is comforting me and thanking me for using rechargeable batteries, taking showers instead of baths, and so on. That is something I can do. So I'm working on that, and will soon move on to sending that love to me and to my close friends.
Yes, I think it's much more difficult to think of loving thoughts for ourselves. After reading the previous posts again, I realize I did the exercise "backwards" as I started sending others loving thoughts first. It was not until last year that I was able to think of myself as "good enough". I think being "good enough" is what many people struggle with even for the most "successful" people.
Lisa, you certainly are "more than" good enough. The good that you bring to earth is much more than all the recycling, the rechargeable batteries, and all the conservation effort that you choose to practice. I have been touched by your free ebook on how to make the world better and your effort to help Haiti. Certainly, so many things you do make the world a better place. And for that, there are so many things are "lovable" about you.
Thanks for starting this thread.
