How can I expect anyone to give me anything if I don’t really believe I deserve it?
I can’t.
Sparrow teaches about self worth.
Sparrow teaches that your voice doesn’t have to be loud to be heard.
Sparrow reminds me of Saint Therese of Lisieux. The Little Flower.
“What matters in life is not great deeds, but great love,” she said. To do the ordinary with extraordinary love.
How can I love like that when I keep looking to get something in return?
I can’t.
Pelican came to me the other day.
Pelican teaches about sharing.
Pelican reminds me to rise above my troubles.
“The only love you keep is the love you give away.” I don’t remember where I read that, but it’s been with me for many years now. Some days I think I’ve got a handle on it. Some days I’m too selfish to see it clearly.
How do I love others without looking for them to love me back, but still love myself and acknowledge that I am worthy of being loved by someone else?
Tricky.
Perhaps this is where Coyote comes in.
