Love Yourself First 💯

How can we expect honesty from others when often we are not honest with ourselves?

How can we expect love from others when often we’re not being loving to ourselves?

How can we expect to find joy in/with others when often we are unable to find/experience joy within ourselves?

Why do we offer kindness & support to strangers and often say/think the cruelest things to/about ourselves?

The backwardness of it all is sad.

Sometimes a little goodness from another person can stimulate us into being more loving and kind to ourselves. Sometimes we need a jump-start.

What it all boils down to "self love".

We are our own worst enemy.

Prolific. And we are certainly in the right place for a kind word from our peers.
