"No matter how much we give love, if we don't give it to ourselves, nobody can love us enough." Louise Hay I believe it is true that being loved must start with loving ourselves. We are trained to disregard ourselves. It is appalling the way people can speak to themselves. When things go awry, like hitting our heads on an open cupboard door, it is not helpful to blame the person who left the door open, nor ourselves for not looking. Treat yourself just as you would anyone who got hurt -- with compassion. Today let us resolve to say and think only loving thoughts about ourselves. If it is true that shame is the basis of addictions and bullying, let us start with ourselves by treating ourselves with loving kindness.
