Transmuting low self worth into self acceptance through forgiveness.
Low self worth is an emotion that all of us deal with,
It is an emotion propagated by a long list of companies as a marketing strategy to get you to feel bad about yourself so you will buy a product.
It is an emotion propagated by our school systems, our teachers, parents, Government institutions and P.O.L.I.C.E. , to make us feel inferior early on in life so that we will bow down to their authority as if they are God themselves.
I used to wonder why people don't believe in themselves ....and then I saw the way they portrayed us to everyone else...they cursed us to only see the worst in ourselves...blind to the fact the whole time , we were hurting ourselves. - Felipe Andres Coronel
Institutional authorities want us to feel like rats in this societal maze; and they want us to feel like they are the friendly snake who could gobble us up at anytime but won't because it is looking out for our best interest.
You see, they have to make us inferior; or else their power and rein would be threatened.
They want us to think that they are superior and that there is nothing we can do to change that.
They want us to feel like we are powerless
And of course when everybody feels inferior, they will bask in glory at the chance to one-up someone to gain a perceived superiority.
Thus, almost everyone you meet in society will try to make you feel inferior to them so that they can feel Superior.
If you stay trapped in this matrix, you will always have low self worth.
Shifting the tide
The truth is, you can easily escape this matrix.
Most of us, when we look in the mirror, see ourselves not for who we truly are; but for whom society imagines us to be.
We see our selves through the eyes of those who hate us.
The key to eliminating low self worth is self acceptance.
But how do you accept yourself as you are when everyone around you wants you to feel inferior?
Well, If the key to positive self worth is self acceptance, then the thing that molds the key is forgiveness.
Forgive yourself first, and forgive others.
You will find that when you forgive: incredible things will happen.
