Love, No Matter What

Netflix have a whole lot of TEDTalks on their site at the minute. One I stumbled across was a TEDTalks series about learning to love both yourself and others.

With my ongoing August Ambition, this was exactly what I needed! There are 7 speakers with 7 different talks ranging from 5 mins to 25 mins in length.

Do you want to feel inspired? Well, here are my favourites for you to have a look at.

How to kiss and not create bruises

I found this on Tumblr, and it was just so beautiful and heartbreaking I had to share.

It can be difficult to determine how much of yourself to give to somebody else. Often, we can give too much, too soon, and not get anything in return. 

Life and love are hard. And when you don't have a lot of self-worth, as I haven't in the past, we often give too much of ourselves away in the hope of receiving a small ounce of attention. In the long run, it only results in more pain. 

Just something worth reflecting on.
