Worthy of Love

Mark Nepo ask us to have "the faith to believe that each of us is worthy of love, just as we are." (p. 93, The Book of Awakening)

He later ask us to "imagine them loving you if you did nothing. Imagine yourself loving yourself if you did nothing." (p. 94 ibid)

That's a hard reach for most of us. We can't imagine a God who truly loves, much less people loving us-if they know us! Then to even fathom loving ourselves in spite of who we know we are as well. Accepting is one step, loving is a leap...
