Love yourself"If you had a friend who talked to you like you sometimes talk to yourself, would you continue to hang around with that person?" -- Rob Bremer Thanks to the power of our inner critics, most of us have a very poor opinion of ourselves. Yet self-contempt merely keeps us miserable and stuck in our mediocrity. If we were to make only one change to transform the quality of our lives, we might try sending a little love our own way. "A critic is a legless man who teaches running." -- Channing Pollock "Unkind criticism is never part of a meaningful critique of you. Its purpose is not to teach or to help, its purpose is to punish." -- Barbara Sher "You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection." -- Buddha IP: Logged |

Thank you, Solane, for your positive attitude and your message, which really can't be stressed enough. I know it's something I must personally strive toward everyday, because somewhere along the way, I think I've lost myself and taken the wrong path. If I don't do something soon, I'm afraid that I may ultimately hit a dead end and it's only a matter of time. IP: Logged |

If you aren't good at loving yourself, you will have a difficult time loving anyone, since you'll resent the time and energy you give another person that you aren't even giving to yourself --> Barbara De AngelisIP: Logged | |
