One of the hardest lessons I've had to learn is how to love myself. I had to discover my capacity for self-care. It was necessary that I listen to how I talked to myself and learn to speak in more positive and affirming ways. Learning to smile, and then laugh when I made a mistake, helped me to be less self-centered and more able to just have fun.

Life is a great experience when I surrender myself to the love around me. Expressing my love to others increases its quantity and quality inside me. Every single human being needs to know that someone loves them, and that they are lovable. Everyone needs to know that they are sufficient. I've discovered that as I give love to others, it is returned to me many times over.

One Day at a Time . . .
I will work at expressing unconditional love.
