Love Yourself Endlessly
By Roop Lakhani - 10:32:00
Love yourself
we struggle because we were rarely taught how.
• What if the exhaustion you feel is not from giving too much — but from abandoning yourself too often?
• Are you truly loving others… or trying to earn love by losing yourself?
• When was the last time you chose yourself without guilt?
• Do you know who you are beyond what others need from you?
• Is your kindness coming from wholeness — or from fear of rejection?
• What if self-love is not something you learn… but something you remember?
• Are you overgiving because you care deeply — or because you fear not being enough?
• If you stopped proving your worth today, who would you become?
Signs You May Not Fully Love Yourself - it's a gentle awareness
• You feel guilty when you rest or prioritize yourself.
• You struggle to say no, even when you feel overwhelmed.
• You constantly seek validation or reassurance from others.
• You tolerate behaviors that hurt you because you fear losing connection.
• You overthink conversations and worry about being “too much” or “not enough.”
• You silence your truth to keep peace or avoid conflict.
• You measure your value by productivity, approval, or how much you give.
• You feel responsible for others’ emotions but disconnected from your own.
• You neglect your emotional or physical needs until burnout forces you to stop.
I was there once in my life. But I was unaware. And the awareness came much after 19 years with blocked, burntout, health issues, disconnection with myself and turning away from my soul nature.
And I realised, Love yourself endlessly, not as an act of ego but as an act of remembrance.
When you honour your own heart, you stop seeking love through sacrifice and begin offering it from wholeness.
Choose yourself gently, again and again — because the love you give yourself becomes the love you share with the world.
From childhood, many of us learned that love meant being good, adjusting, pleasing, sacrificing, and putting others first. We were praised for being helpful, understanding, and selfless —
but rarely guided to ask:
What do I feel?
What do I need?
What is true for me?
Slowly, without realizing, we learned to measure our worth through how much we give rather than how deeply we honour ourselves.
Self-love was misunderstood as selfishness.
Boundaries were mistaken for rejection.
Rest was labeled as laziness.
And expressing our needs felt uncomfortable or even unsafe.
So we grew up knowing how to care for everyone — but feeling disconnected from our own inner world.
Self-love is not ego.
It is emotional responsibility.
It is the ability to sit with your feelings without abandoning yourself.
To choose yourself without guilt.
To speak your truth without fear of losing love.
To nurture your inner child with the kindness you so freely offer others.
When you begin loving yourself, you don’t love others less — you love them from wholeness rather than exhaustion.
Self-love is important because:
• It breaks cycles of people-pleasing and emotional overgiving.
• It strengthens emotional boundaries.
• It heals inner wounds formed in childhood.
• It restores inner safety and self-trust.
• It allows relationships to become conscious rather than compensatory.
Self-love is not something you achieve once.
It is a daily relationship with your own soul.
Today, pause and ask yourself gently:
Where am I abandoning myself to be accepted?
What does my inner child need from me right now?
How would I show up differently if I truly believed I mattered too?
Affirmation:
I honour myself with the same compassion I offer others. My needs, emotions, and truth are worthy of space.
To loving yourself
