Being true to myself

About self respect and feeding the good animal

Everyone wants to be happy. So why are we doing things that don't make us happy? Even if we know that something is not good for us we still do it. We feed the bad animal. Only by feeding the good animal, making us feel good about ourselves makes us happy. Only you can make yourself happy. No one else can.

Giving, helping others is the easiest way to make yourself happy. Taking responsibility of our thinking, talking and actions makes us respect ourselves. Doing things that are good for us, accepting who we are. Feeding the good animal in us. Avoiding feeding the bad animal. Self respect is love towards ourselves. Taking care of our heart, soul and body. Doing things that inspires us.

Feeding the good animal includes pain, acceptance, acceptance of who and what we really are. It includes pain, pain of love. Compassion, pain of love, requires much more than feeding the bad animal. When we have self respect, compassion and love towards ourselves, when we are true to ourselves, only then we can truly love others.
