The contract - a wonderful gift

Since my awakening I have dearly wanted to know my contract, my mission, the reason why I am here. If I am a healer or a teacher or perhaps both? Today during my "bath meditation" (I love to meditate while taking a hot bath - it's great!) I received a wonderful gift from my higher self. I was told that I am here to love - to love all beings. And - I was asked: "How can you love anybody when you do not love yourself - as we are all one?" So this is the first part of my contract to love myself. This is - for me - the most difficult thing as I have grown up with the dogma that you have to earn love and sympathy the hard way. But - my higher self asked again - why do you have to "earn" something when you are perfect right from the beginning? While I am writing these things my heart chakra becomes warmer and warmer and I want to call out to all of you: You are perfect, love yourself! I promise to do the same!!
