Honor Yourself, Your Life, and Your Commitments

By Lissette Rios

Honor who you are, a child of God!  You are a magnificent being worthy of love, respect, and prosperity and never settle for less than that.  Make choices and decisions based upon those principles.   Who you are matters; what you believe is your reality; what you have to say is valuable.  Do not allow anyone to tell you otherwise. By accepting the way others treat you in life, you are accepting a belief about yourself. You are accepting that you are or you are not important enough. 

There is a purpose for your being here, for your life.  Own that belief. You are a gift, a blessing to the world.  You have so much to give; just give it.  Give it now, not later, not tomorrow, but right now.  It may just be a smile or a kind word, a helping hand. Whatever someone else may need at this moment is your gift to him or to her and to yourself. Each one of us makes a difference in the lives we touch.  It is up to us to give, to open our heart and to honor that feeling of just wanting to help.  It is in giving from the heart that we always receive.

When we learn to honor that magnificent being whom we are, when we learn to stand up for ourselves, when we learn that we are valuable, that we are worthy of respect, we are worthy of loving ourselves unconditionally, we can’t help but to love and to treat others the same way.

You know the choices you have to make in life; you know the people and the circumstances from whom or from which you have to walk away.  Love yourself enough to make those choices and to honor them, no matter what.

There is always a way.  Believe in yourself. Believe in whom you are and always believe that you are worthy of excellence.  Treat everyone and everything the way in which you would want to be treated.  Be magnificent.
