The title may sound very selfish to some, but selfish is good when you consider the fact that it is impossible to love another, if you don’t love yourself first!
Makes you think, doesn’t it?
I just had an interesting conversation with a friend about love, romance, companionship and relationships in general. Being in the self-discovery and healing mode myself, I am not interested in companionship right now. I don’t miss romance and I am not looking for it. My sole focus is on learning to TRULY LOVE MYSELF.
In loving myself, I am learning to respect my needs without compromise. Women and mothers often tend to sacrifice themselves for others but end up losing themselves and no longer being able to care for their loved ones. What good is that?
In loving myself, I am learning my self-worth, how much my time, my energy, my body, mind and soul are precious. I do not give them away. I respect myself and in doing so, I teach others to respect me too.
In loving myself, I teach others how to love me too. I deserve to be loved and to be loved well. I am love, I give love and when I receive love, I accept it. Love is in everything I do, speak and feel. I surround myself with this energy to expand it to all around me. The results are marvelous.
