You might find that you are seeking attention today, which could be the result of feeling unfulfilled in your relationships. Your neediness may be due to your idea that your needs can be satisfied by getting validation from others. Today you might want to think about what you are not giving yourself and expect from other people instead. While you consider the things you fear and how they manifest in your relationships, keep in mind that no one else can fulfill all your needs. Total love, acceptance, and understanding can only come from within. You might create an affirmation or statement that helps you improve your self-image to remind you of this. You could notice that once you accept the picture of who you are at present, you do not need others to create your image for you.

Accepting ourselves for who we are is the only way to satisfy our needs. Often we might find that we are searching for validation beyond ourselves. We think that if only someone views us in a certain way we will feel content. But other people can never really understand who we are and all of our needs. By relying on their confirmation, we are looking at ourselves through a distorted lens and our needs will never be met. When we recognize this, we have greater compassion and understanding for ourselves and create the space to give ourselves what we feel we lack. Understanding today that you are a work in progress will help you find the means to fulfill yourself.
