This morning while meditating, I created affrimations which express what I want to experience in an intimate relationship. For each affirmation, I listed my needs.
My needs are:
Peace - from treating others how I treat myself
Appreciation - from appreciating myself and other people
Passion - from doing work which pleases me
Security - not from money, but from knowing I can trust myself
Love - from loving myself unconditionally
Notice I didn't list my needs as material, but emotional. My needs weren't:
Money
Success
A fast car
A big house
Bring in a relationship with my dream person
Being sexy
I don't think another person or something material, will ultimately make me happy. Sure, a Porsche can make me
happier, but it's not the source of my happiness. Anyway, here are my intentions (affirmations) and please use them if you feel they're helpful to you.
When in love, I feel peaceful. And this peace compliments the peace I already have in my life. When in love, I feel appreciated. And this appreciation compliments the appreciation I already feel today. When in love, I feel passionate. And this passion compliments the passion I have right now. When in love, I feel secure. And this sense of security, compliments the amount of security I feel today. When in love, I feel more love. And this love compliments the love I have for myself.
It's important to make intentions that clearly state you don't need another person make you happy. If I had instead said:
When in love, I feel secure- I can only feel secure if I'm in love
When in love, I feel peace- I can't feel peaceful on my own
When in love, I feel love- I can't love myself
When in love, I feel passion- I have to have another person to make me feel passionate about my life
When in love, I feel appreciation - I can't feel appreciated unless another person makes me feel like I am
I don't believe we can depend on other people to meet our emotional needs. We have to first feel the way we want, and then we'll attract more of what we feel. We'll attract relationships that add value. It's the Law of Attraction.
Cheers
