How I Fix My Relationship with Myself…

I didn’t need to understand what makes my heart race and why my soul is in a real state of ecstasy, an endless joy that penetrates the deep layer of my soul, somehow I know what it is…. because I never felt it before

What is a bond between two beings or some void which needs fixing… why does it happen and because of whom??? It all started with a wet nose, a wagging tail, and a heart that knows only LOVE.

When I was about to give up on myself then she entered my life and slowly I found myself BACK again because… Animals don’t judge Us.
They don’t see the world like that they see us as we are. They love us for who we TRULY are. They fall in love with our soul. They see what’s on the inside and that’s what matters. My relationship with myself started to fix when I saw myself through their eyes and it wasn’t a bad sight. They helped me own up to who I was. I thought if a scared & battered animal found some relief in my arms, maybe I’m not as flawed as I think I am. I hope you start seeing yourself the way animals see you.

Start seeing yourself the way animals see you. The happiness they feel when they see you approaching. The relief they breathe at the sight of you. The way they stretch in your lap because they know it’s a place where they can be unafraid. Just the idea of you fills their heart with warmth and that must mean something. It must mean something, right? You are so much more than you think you are.

We all come from twisted places with demons in our closets and boxes underneath our beds but together we build something warm and safe…. We comfort each other and heal together.

Somebody asked me recently- what was the happiest day of my life? I have the answer now. It was the day I found love again. I found it in all the little animals I had raised. When I met her, it felt like dusk had finally dissolved into dawn & the sun shone on my face. I’d spent months trapped in a hurricane, a sunny day felt like an alternate universe. I have an enormous capacity to love but I had no one to pour my love into. I have learnt how to love from her. Animals love wholeheartedly. Unreasonably. Recklessly. That’s all I needed to heal. She rescued me.
From darkness.
From sadness.
From me.
