Of course my relationship consist of me and myself, and the willingness to accept who I am.
As I listen to the chatter of Celebrity wedding advice, people on the street talking about the love of their partners or lack there of I must remind myself :
No Matter What!
For richer or for poorer
For better or worse
in sickness and in health
I am committed to living my best life,
I am committed to the principals of
honesty, humility, compassion, and the
willingness to arrest behaviors that contradict this value
system I aspire to.
Now, I grew up in a small town with a mother who treated Christianity how junkies treat crack (So I believed at the time), and a father who's lessons always invoked TheHoly Qu'ran.
As a gay kid the message of my parents beliefs got lost in their inability to deal with a gay child
(I dont blame them at all)
But what I didn't realized is through all the whining about church, and the praying five times a day a foundation was laid, and
it doesn't mean I have to adopt either of my parents religions
but after living a life without the chore principals that were bred in me as a child I realize that they living a life with
Honesty
Humility
Compassion
Willingness
Openness
Acceptance
gives my relation ship with my self a chance!
I've lived a life divorced from myself, hiding from my true feelings believing I wasn't worth it.
Today I know that I'm worth it, and I believe you are too and I hope that you can/do learn to actively love yourself too.
Life for the past month hasn't been easy for me, and the whole time I've been wallowing in self pity repeating words like
I can't
What's the point
And I got side tracked from My true self!
I was forgetting that no matter how I feel,
especially when I don't feel like it
I must remember to get up and go for it.
To remember how I want to live and do it.
That's the best way to love me for me.
I think that would be my advice to Will and Kate! any couple. like Ru says,
"If you can't love your self................"
