Soul Vows靈魂誓言

You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.
你自己，比全世界的其他人，更值得你的關(guān)愛和喜歡。
Prepare “soul vows.” These vows were deepest commitment to love, cherish, and deeply care for all parts of yourself in sickness and in health, until your time on the planet comes to an end.
準備好“靈魂誓言”。這些誓言是你內(nèi)心對愛情、珍愛、和深藏在你內(nèi)心的所有一切的最誠摯的承諾，無論生命健康與否，會跟隨你直到你在這個世界最后一天。

Seeking love outside yourself will never bring fulfillment unless you possess radical, unshakable love for yourself.
在外面尋找真愛不能讓你有完全的滿足感，除非你對自己有徹底的不可動搖的愛。
With that knowing, these are some of Soul Vows:
有了這些共識，我們可以做出以下的靈魂誓言：
I vow to comfort myself during times of hopelessness, despair, depression, disillusionment, or any difficulty that arises.
我發(fā)誓，在絕望、沮喪、幻滅或任何困難出現(xiàn)的時候，我會安慰自己。
I vow to be my Beloved always and in all ways.
我發(fā)誓，我會一直，并以一切方式，做自己最心愛的人。
I vow to never settle or abandon myself in romantic partnerships again.
我發(fā)誓，我不會把自己再次扔進并沉湎與浪漫愛情之中。
I vow to live in the faith my life unfolds in mysterious divine perfection.
我發(fā)誓，要活在我的信仰之中，讓生命展現(xiàn)神秘神圣完美的一面。
I vow to honor my spiritual path and create an amazing life whether I am ever legally married or not.
我發(fā)誓，以我的精神道路為榮，并創(chuàng)造出讓人驚訝的人生，不管我是否合法結(jié)婚。
I vow to honor my calling and live my life as a work of art.
我發(fā)誓，以聽到的號召為榮，讓自己的人生活得像藝術(shù)品一樣精彩。
Some vows were tender and some fierce—some private, and some to be shared with the world.
誓言有些是溫和的，有些是激烈的，有些私人的，有些可以與全世界分享。
All vows were an expression of my soul’s calling and a deep desire to love myself and care for myself at the deepest possible level in all areas of my life.
所有的誓言都體現(xiàn)我靈魂的召喚，以及要愛護自己的強烈渴望，以盡可能深的程度在生活的各方面關(guān)愛自己。
These vows were the gateway into a life that was deeper, richer, and more connected to my soul’s guidance.
這些誓言都是進入生命的一個途徑，它們更深入更豐富，與靈魂有更密切聯(lián)系。
Here are 4 ways to say “I do” to you…
用以下這四種方式，對自己說“我愿意”：
1. Write your soul vows.
1. 寫下你的靈魂誓言
You have a deeply cherished vision for your life, and your soul vows are a way to get it out of your soul and on paper. You could create a video, write a poem, or use fancy writing. Throw yourself a party. Register for gifts! Why not?
你對自己的生活有最珍視的視角，所以你的靈魂誓言是你用文字把心里的話記載出來的。你也可以做一個視頻，寫一首詩，或者寫篇小說。然后為自己舉行一個宴會，登記收到的禮物，有何不可？！
2. Create a vision board.
2. 創(chuàng)造一個愿景版
The soul speaks in images. Your soul vows may be magnificently revealed in a vision for your life. Carve out some time to craft a vision board from images that resonate with you. Allow yourself to be intuitively drawn to these images and don’t rely on your rational mind.
靈魂會以形象說話。你的靈魂誓言將以最大程度展現(xiàn)你生活的視角。留出一些時間，制造一個和你形象有共鳴的愿景版。允許你自己直觀地繪制出這些形象，不要依賴你的理智。
3. Sacred jewelry.
3. 神圣的珠寶
Procure a piece of jewelry that has heart and meaning for you, such as a silver heart necklace inscribed: “You make the world a better place.”
A lady actually created a sacred jewelry business after marrying herself. She’s finally found her path after years of meandering.
取一件對你來說是有心意及意義的珠寶。如一件銀項鏈，上面雕刻著“你讓世界更美好”。
曾有一位女士在“嫁給”自己后，送了自己一個神圣的珠寶。然后在經(jīng)歷多年的曲折之后，她終于找到了屬于自己的道路。
4. Be witnessed in your sacred vows.
4. 見證自己的神圣誓言
While making a soul vows, perhaps a ceremony with a few close friends? Find a way to have others acknowledge this transformation.
在做靈魂誓言時，不妨舉行一個小型典禮，讓其他人也承認你的這種轉(zhuǎn)變。
And while the marrying myself was a lovely starting place, it was really just the beginning. In the wise words “Your task is not to seek love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.”
“嫁給”自己是一個可愛的起點，但它也僅僅是一個開始。一個智言說到：“你的任務(wù)不是要尋覓愛，但只有尋覓并發(fā)現(xiàn)擋住你的障礙，你才能去沖破它。”
