Self love is the foundation of love for others.
I have struggled with an ability to accept, respect, and love myself - primarily because of the way others have treated me. I have allowed my decisions to be driven by the desires of those around me instead of the achievement of my greatest good. I have identified a way to overcome the insecurity and the fear to just be myself - a bit much, a little different, next to normal.
But I continue to struggle. The work continues to challenge me. And I engage in the work, I remain silent when I should speak. I suppress myself when I should stand out.
But each day gets a little better. Each day I grow a bit more. Each day I press forward.
And the love continues to grow...
