COMMANDEMENT 17 — I Honour My Feelings
Jul 8th, 2010 by boldbeauty
As you read through these commandments, you may get the sense that you are supposed to be happy and productive and in control all the time. The fact is, you aren’t going to be. You can’t be. Sometimes you are going to feel tired, sad, angry, envious and any number of negative things.
And that’s okay. I fact, it’s more than okay. It’s
real.
A Boldly Beautiful woman is a real woman. She has real emotions, real feelings, real wants and needs. And she knows that it is not only okay, but necessary, to honor her feelings. Because when you honor your feelings, you honor yourself. You say that you have a right to your perceptions, your experiences, even your negativity.
Allowing yourself the right to feel what you feel, to experience what you experience, gives you the power to control those feelings – rather than letting it be the other way around. By knowing that you don’t have to pretend negative feelings aren’t there, you know you can face them head-on, process them and grow from them.
Remember, whatever is real to you, whatever you feel in your heart and in your soul,matters. Because
you matter. And in your Boldly Beautiful life, you give yourself permission to face and deal with whatever matters to you. You deserve it, and it willonly make you a stronger person.
