She believed she could.. and she did

Another dark and chilly autumn evening, snuggled on my sofa. Make up removed, Pj's on .... another chance to write another awesome blog, another chance to practice my tool.
Every day I believe I can and I do. Everyday I make the conscious decision to enjoy each moment that little bit more, to work on expanding myself and walking my path.
Today whilst browsing my Instagram feed, I came across a post from a lady who I follow both on Facebook and Instagram. She is a life and anxiety coach and puts some amazing posts up. She asked a question which completely caught me off guard and truthfully I cringed a little inside. She asked her followers to tell her about what makes them special.
Now usually I find her posts fairly easy to answer but this one I had to sit and think about. When I think of myself I don't think I am special, I think I am just the same as every other soul on this planet. Then it clicked I am not the same as any other soul on this planet, but we should all look at ourselves as special. I mean what are the actual chances of you being born. When you think about just how lucky we are to be here and alive we have every right to celebrate our uniqueness as well as our special qualities that make us who we are.
I proceeded to answer the question and felt amazing for doing so. I can hand out compliments that come from the heart to anyone and everyone, however I never realised talking so nicely about myself and looking at my own qualities was such a monstrous task!
Then again another lightbulb moment came to me. I was being given another beautiful opportunity to grow, to heal. Another chance to look deep within at why I couldn't show myself that love. I believe in every moment whether we realise it or not, we have the chance to make a change for ourselves. Whether it is to respond instead of react in a situation that may be less then ideal, or show ourselves some major self love by owning our inner and outer beauty.
When was the last time you showed yourself some love? Or took the opportunity to see why you don't show yourself as much love as you deserve?
