Cherish the Trust You Have in Yourself
Hello everyone🌸 This is Yutogi😊
Thank you so much for coming here again today,
truly🩷(u_u＊)✨
I am truly happy that you always take the time to read this❤️❤️m(_ _)m✨✨
Today,
I would like to share some thoughts I had about the "trust you have in yourself"🌸
The phrase 'relationship of trust'
A relationship of trust with others.
This is a phrase we hear often.
Keeping promises.
Valuing the other person.
Being on their side when they are in trouble.
I believe that is how
a relationship of trust is built, little by little.
I also believe that
the trust you have in yourself is just as important.
I have betrayed myself
In the past, I
constantly betrayed myself.
Even on days when I had done enough,
"I can still do more."
"I can do better."
That is how
I kept pushing myself.
Even the words I would say to others, like
"You worked hard today,"
I could never say to myself.
That is why,
no matter how hard I tried,
no matter how good the results I achieved, it was painful.
There is no way I could build trust
If a friend kept saying,
“It’s not enough yet.”
“Try harder.”
every time I worked hard,
would I be able to trust that person? I’m sure it would be difficult.
But I have been doing the exact same thing
to myself, the person closest to me.
When I thought about it that way,
I realized that
there was no way I could have built a relationship of trust with myself.
I realized that.
Become your own ally
Little by little,
I learned to become my own ally.
On days I worked hard,
“You did a great job today.”
On days I failed,
“Those days happen too.”
Once I was able to say things like that,
my heart felt surprisingly lighter.
Being acknowledged by someone else
is, of course, a happy thing.
But,
first, you must acknowledge yourself.
If the person closest to you is always your enemy,
your heart may never find rest.
Keep your promises
I don’t think a relationship of trust with yourself
is anything special.
Resting when you think,
“I’ll rest today.”
Expressing gratitude when you think,
“Thank you.”
Finishing properly
when you decide,
“That’s enough for today.”
Every time I keep such small promises,
little by little,
I become able to trust myself.
That is how I feel.
The person you will be with the longest
In life,
the person you are with the longest is yourself.
That is why,
I want to be on my own side until the very end.
Just as you value your relationship with others,
I want to cherish and nurture the relationship I have with myself.
Living your life deeply
Deepening your relationship with yourself
might also mean
“living life deeply.”
Conclusion
It is wonderful to have someone tell you,
“It’s okay.”
But perhaps what brings the most peace to your heart
is being able to tell yourself,
“It’s okay.”
to yourself.
Relationships with others are things that grow over time.
If that is the case, then surely,
the relationship with yourself is the same.
Little by little, step by step.
If we can keep adding “thank yous” to ourselves,
I feel that life
will become kinderand deeper.

Thank you so much for reading until the end today,
thank you very much.🌸m(_ _)m✨
