Get Off Your Knees: You Are Enough

Written By Alethea Jimison

Love became a mystery to humanity, with the distortion caused by a manipulated fantasy.

The fantasy of possession and justification leads to attachments that are destructive. 

To understand love is to know that love is not potential. 

Love is not hunger or desire.

Hunger and desire are an emptiness of never-enoughness. 

Desire is a longing and a lack that creates a void like a monkey on your back. 

This insatiable hunger for love is an emptiness inside you that you desperately seek to satisfy. 

If you learned how to feed yourself with self-love, then you could learn how to fly. 

You avoid understanding yourself so much that you sustain on the junk-food version of emotional gratification. 

You wonder why you keep starving when none of this substitution offers any nutrition. 

True love starts from the inside out.

When you learn to trust yourself, you’ll never have a doubt. 

You will know your value enough to set boundaries. 

You will understand that you don’t have to sacrifice your needs. 

I watched myself fall in love and break into fragmented pieces without dignity. 

 

I had no self-esteem and no understanding of my own divinity. 

Many women share a common unconscious belief that we are unworthy of love. 

We systematically attract toxic lovers who treat us like disposable gloves 

Someone to slide into and slide out of.

It’s as if we have this invisible super-power that prevents us from seeing partners who would treat us like we have meaning. 

We keep falling for losers and cheaters like it’s some kind of routine. 

When you learn how to love yourself, you will know what it’s like to be in love. 

You will know that you are enough. 

You will not walk on eggshells to make another person happy. 

Broken people attract damaged individuals and they dance a disharmonious ballet of desperation on scuffed knees of compromise, broken promises and lies. 

Release yourself from the need to validate your existence through someone else’s eyes.

The weight of your worthiness is not measured by every time you were rebuffed.

Get off your knees, you are enough.
