Oi Gentes!

First off, I’m 32 years old, I feel energetic, confident, and fabulous; mind, body, and soul. I wanted to introduce a new section of my website called ‘Love & Life Style‘. This idea was something my husband brought up in one of our conversations about my website (Odeliza) and beauty channel on YouTube.

I really want to share and inspire others, especially women in my age group, that life does not stop and end at 30. For me, it has only just begun. My husband tells me that I am such a great person and partner in his life, that maybe I could share my experiences with others.

I had to put a lot of thought into this idea, 2 years, because I wanted to make sure I had something that I thought was helpful and inspiration worthy. So here is the Love & Life Style No.1.

Love & Life Style No. 1

The saying ‘Love yourself first before you love others’, I truly believe this hits home for me. If you do not think of yourself worthy of love, then how do you suppose someone else does? I asked myself that question and my answer, I am worthy of love, for I love myself. I am thankful that I am me. I am not perfect, but imperfectly perfect in my own way.

You have to look within yourself and know that even though you may think that you are not worthy of love, truly I believe you are.

You go about your day and make the most of what you have and be grateful for where you are in life and the things you could do in the future.

If you compare yourself to others and question why this person has this and you don’t you will set your self up for failure in loving yourself. No one person is identical, maybe there are similarities in age, life style, profession, etc. but you and the other person you compare yourself to are not the same. You are you. They are them.

For instance, I happened to read another blog post about age and goals. More power to that person for making a list of goals. But one thing that caught my attention most was this person wanted to have all these goals accomplished before they reach the age of 30 for they believed that life for them will ‘settle down’ at 30. I read that and for a brief second I thought, I’m 32, does that mean my life should be settled? Then I snapped myself out of it. I don’t really believe in the phrase ‘settling down’. For me, I work towards new goals, continue to travel around the world, learn new skills, and change my mind. I believe in myself.

This belief transfers to my husband, friends, and colleagues.

This love and respect for myself transfers to anyone that I come across. So, look within your self, see all the good things about you and then see all the flaws that you have and learn to love your self.

I hope my first Love & Lifestyle post was helpful to you, please show your support by sharing my website (Odeliza) with your friends and family. And if you haven’t already, subscribe to my Beauty Channel on YouTube and Follow Me on Twitter.

Beso,

Odeliza
