Self Love

The only way to truly love another person in a fulfilling relationship is to first love you.  That goes far beyond saying" I love myself" it's so much deeper than the words. This is a situation where your actions will determine how you really feel about yourself. Self-love is acknowledging that you are not perfect and never will be. It's accepting your flaws and insecurities and facing them head on. It's acknowledging your hurt in other relationships and forgiving those who hurt or offended you. It's daily prayer asking God to help you along on your journey. It’s owning up to your mistakes and using them as learning tools instead of failures. It's about being open to rejection and failure because rejection only serves a negative purpose if you decide to own it rather than embrace it and uses it as being God’s grace. Its understanding that everything that happens for a reason and when something is taken from you it makes room for something better in your life. Self-love is recognizing that you are uniquely made and original there is no other like you. Recognizing that everyone you allow into your circle does not always deserve to remain there. It understands your worth and exercising your powers as a child of God to have faith in knowing that God is in control. When you get to the place in your journey where you are in love with yourself that's the moment life blossoms and begins to make sense.
