The difference between how we see ourselves and how we want to be seen causes us discomfort. When we worry about our inadequacies, we fear the outside world sees them too. In order to elevate our image in others’ eyes, we sometimes scramble to impress them. What we’re really doing is trying to convince ourselves that we’re worthy. Since we’ll never be able to control others’ opinions, that game is futile. Feeling good about ourselves has nothing to do with others and everything to do with…
Loving ourselves.
