Nothing profound here, simply a 'law' that you can't give what you don't have.
If you don't Love yourself, how can you give Love?
If you don't Respect yourself, how can you give Respect?
If you don't Honour yourself, how can you Honour others?
If you don't Value yourself, how can you give Self Worth to another?
If you judge yourself and not in Acceptance of all that you are, how can you Accept others without judgement?
We can't give what we don't have.
In the case of parenthood I experience many parents who don't have functional boundaries in place in their own inner world. How can we therefore create loving, safe, consistent and functional boundaries for our children? And I see this reflected every day in children who are unable to navigate their world, simply because no one was able to set the necessary boundaries for them, with Love.
The only way to redress this is to 'do the work' and by that I mean get help to understand where we are lacking in functional boundaries, and use the various modalities that are available to us, to put them in place for ourselves!
If you want to see where any issues may be lurking in your own unconsciousness, where you may not be respecting, loving, honouring, valuing or accepting yourself, observe your children if you have them, for as unfettered souls incarnating into a boundaryless existence, they will reflect with immediate and untainted clarity, exactly what they are searching for!
Children are truly a perfect reflection of their immediate environment. How could it be otherwise?
