Your life is three truths: how you treat others. h

Your life is three truths: how you treat others. how you treat yourself. & how you allow yourself to be treated. ⁣
⁣
For the longest time I didn’t quite know my real worth. When I was young, I was conditioned to believe what I was told by others. I was seeing myself through other peoples lenses - and I wondered why my vision was so blurry 🤷🏻‍♀️ ⁣
⁣
I didn’t know my worth because I was always seeking external validation. ⁣
⁣
It padded my ego when I was the go-to girl for everything amongst friends, and when broken men came around, I wanted to be “the healer.” ⁣
⁣
My judgement was clouded by their troubled pasts - I saw a man in need of love and thought I could fill those voids.⁣
⁣
But you see, that’s the wrong kind of challenge to take on. ⁣
⁣
I no longer seek to “fall in love”, I “rise in love.” I used to attribute love to a feeling towards another person, but now I realize that love is our own energy. ⁣
⁣
The more you love yourself, the more you give yourself the permission to BE loved … to be yourself, and to align with someone who has the same energy flow. ⁣
⁣
So you have love yourself … A LOT. If you only love yourself at 50%, you can only attract someone who will love you at 50% because that’s all you know!!⁣
⁣
When you love yourself at 100% … you reach a level of unimaginable freedom. The divine source of love itself flows through you, as you. ⁣
⁣
You align with everything you deserve when you have that kind of energy 🤍⁣
⁣
Who can relate?⁣

“Anything a man can give me materialistic - I can give to myself. ⁣
⁣
My definition of spoiling is someone giving me their time … giving me experiences … giving me feelings.”⁣

Happy Valentine’s Day & cheers to setting boundaries and keeping certain things out of the public eye 🥂💕😋⁣

How are you celebrating?!⁣

When you plan your trip to Dominican Republic you simply can’t miss @scapepark ! ⁣
⁣
Scape Park is a [HUGE] natural theme park with cliff zip lining (more than a dozen options), ancient underground caves, hiking trails, waterfalls, cenotes, a reptile island and more.⁣
⁣
Current prices for admission are $129 adults // $69 for kids which includes access to the entire park + transportation to and from the hotel. ⁣
⁣
For $30 extra you can also experience a catamaran snorkeling cruise around the Cap Cana Marina ⛵️⁣
⁣
You can easily spend a full day there - there are restaurants & bars on site so well worth the money. The park is large and right now since there are less tourists, you can have most of the areas nearly to yourself! ⁣
⁣
Have you ever been to a cenote? ⁣

If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change 😌⁣
⁣
The other day someone asked me “How do you want others to see you, Elona?”⁣
⁣
At first my mind raced to the shelves labeled: “adjectives” in the frontal cortex of my brain 🧠 ⁣
⁣
Then I thought about it - does it really matter how I WANT others to see me? The reality is, that is completely out of my control. ⁣
⁣
Your perception may not be my reality. Your perception at any given point in time comes from a mixture of your individual experiences, feelings, and observations. ⁣
⁣
Your perception means you may have a different interpretation, a different depth of thought and perhaps a distinct level of acceptance than me. ⁣
⁣
At this moment in my life, I know that I am empathetic, intelligent, charismatic … mentally & physically fit. I am not cocky, I am self aware and I try to be a better person every day. ⁣
⁣
You may see me this way … you may not. And while I hope that you do, we can be on different frequencies 😇⁣
⁣
How would you describe yourself? ⁣

If you are lonely when you are alone, you are in bad company.⁣

Read that again 😉⁣
⁣
Dominican Republic is sometimes referred to as the country with the “endless summer.” It has a tropical maritime climate with little seasonal variation in temperature so it’s warm and sunny for most part of the year 🌝⁣
⁣
While very popular amongst families, honeymooners and spring breakers - Dominican Republic is also a great country for solo travel 💃🏻⁣
⁣
You can explore cities modeled after medieval Spain or get lost in history at the oldest cathedral in the world. You can go hiking or river rafting or swimming in the crystal blues of cenotes. Just to name a few! ⁣
⁣
⁣
What’s your ideal kind of vacation? Relaxing or exploring? Solo or with someone else? ⁣

Buenos Días desde Republica Dominicana 🇩🇴 the second largest country in the Caribbean! ⁣
⁣
I lost count of how many times I’ve been here and it never disappoints 😌⁣
⁣
Everyone knows Dominican Republic has incredible beaches and an abundance of all-inclusive resorts ... but fewer people know about its rain forests, cenotes, mountains, towering waterfalls, deserts, colonial history and old colorful towns with of cobble stone streets! ⁣
⁣
Dominican Republic is the most visited country in the Caribbean ... and tourism is its largest industry ✈️⁣
⁣
I’m proud that I was chosen by my friends at @godomrep to show you how the country is welcoming back tourists with new & important safety protocols. More on that soon ... ⁣
⁣
Let me know if you have any questions & check out the DR stories in my highlights for many more goodies 🌝⁣
⁣
Have you been to Dominican Republic? ⁣

Penn Station is often referred to as the anus of NYC (@jerometraveller) 😅⁣
⁣
It also happens to be the busiest station in the United States - over 600,000 commuters every day! ⁣
⁣
You are likely to see someone slouched over and taking a nap in the corner. A few people will be walking around and talking to themselves. ⁣
⁣
You haven’t truly experienced Penn Station if someone didn’t come up to you and ask for spare change 🙃 ⁣
⁣
A bunch of boozy Long Islander’s rush to buy a can of beer in a paper bag before boarding the last train out of Manhattan at 2AM (guilty 💁🏻‍♀️)
⁣
The smell of urine tickles your nostrils. ⁣
⁣
I know this doesn’t sound like Narnia but I promise you, it’s a vibe. It’s New York City 🤍
⁣
After decades of planning and three years of construction, Manhattan’s Moynihan Train Hall finally opened its doors today to commuters.⁣
⁣
The hall is part of a $1.6 billion project. The new area looks Penn Station looks like a modern version of London’s St. Pancras Railway Station 🤩 ⁣
⁣
Have you been? What do you think? ⁣
