In these challenging times when daily living costs have stretched many household budgets it gets me thinking about lack/need and the opposite of having more then enough.
H o w many times I had to wave a magic wand to feed my children back when my life was up and down. There wasn’t much stability or consistency in my previous relationship or in the finance department.
I lived off crumbs in the relationship much the same way as I did financially.
I settled for small/tiny amounts of a marriage. I always found myself wanting and needing more. Never satisfied with the little that I received despite how much I gave from my own emptiness. I have always been a giver, its in my nature. There are countless times in which this hasn’t been reciprocated over my lifetime. I guess I only valued myself enough to accept crumbs.
BUT then life changed! As it does!
I finally came to the realisation that there was more available if I only opened up to it. If I only allowed myself to see that I deserved more then crumbs. After so many YEARS of being starved I woke up to the fact that I needed to be with someone who matched my level of care and genuine love.
It wasn’t easy to get to that point believe me!
I am no longer starving for affection, attention, genuine care, a listening ear and an attentive heart. I have the buffet type of marriage relationship that I was always searching for in my heart. Its a mix of everything I have ever needed – and it’s a healthy buffet with all the good stuff.
Its here for me every day and I don’t have to go searching for it. No begging needed, no desperate pleas of attention, NO MORE trying and trying and trying…
It’s given to me no strings attached, free flowing love that I will never take for granted. I remember my previous life living off crumbs and appreciate what I have in my life now. Its incredible and I didn’t do anything special, all I did was be myself.
I am worth more then crumbs!
YOU are worth more then crumbs!
