September Affirmations 2023

Let’s get right to it, shall we…

“Love is not just for soothing you; it is an engine of evolution.” -Yung Pueblo

While I was reading his latest book, Lighter, this sentence kind of emboldened as my eyes trailed the page. I immediately knew it was for Me to consider. I asked myself, “do I approach my relationships with a willingness to allow them to grow Me?”…Even as I ask myself now, I know the answer is, “I’d like to”, “I know I should”, but this isn’t always the case. In fact, in this moment, I don’t know how long it’s been since it was the case. 

When I think about my relationships with my partner, my parents, my friends, I can admit that my value of feeling good tends to overshadow any other mission that could be present. Having my value of feeling good at the forefront, while well intentioned, can sometimes be a disservice to my evolution. That pains Me to say because feeling good matters deeply to Me.  

Sometimes, my value of feeling good may cause Me to avoid important conversations, hide when my feelings get hurt, or even isolate. There could be comfort in that, sure, but there’s no growth; and what does that say about how I perceive the people in my life? Rather than being worried that I’ll burden them with my thoughts and feelings, I ought to prove to them that I trust them enough. Because I really do want to. 

Here are some affirmations for myself and for anyone else who can use some light in this area: 

I attract positive people into my life. 

The people I come across, whether within Love or not, have the potential to teach Me something. 

I trust the people I’ve chosen. 

It is safe for Me to evolve in my relationships. 

I offer grace to myself and to my people. 

Even in moments of discomfort, I am safe. 

I am Loved and cared for.

 

Trust the people You’ve chosen and trust yourself. You are rooted, You are safe, grow on. 

Happy September.
