Introduction

S

elf love is power. It is like a crown we could always wear and be like a queen. However, self love is not just about simply accepting our flaws and imperfections. But it is all about taking care of our self in a whole. From the internal aspects to the external aspects of it, keeping the four levels of ourselves its well being and balance; the physical level, mental level, emotional level, and lastly is the spiritual level. Giving each aspects the proper attention and providing all the right care it needs. In able for those aspects to function well. Self love is the greatest gift we could give to ourselves. Or I should say it is the greatest gift we must give to ourselves. Because just think about the situation when there was no one beside us. Specially during the hardest times of our lives. And we realized that at the end of the day, only ourselves was there who gave us the comfort we need. Only our own hands can embrace us and shed our tears. Only our mouth can say the words it's okay, everything will be fine. Only our own feet can bring us to the comfortable place we can cry out loud. Only our own mind can tell and make decision for us to be calm for it is enough. And when everyone turns their back, only our own self will stay and never leave our side. No matter how we have hated and criticize our self mentioning its mistakes and imperfections, it will never leave. It will always be there willing to help and support us. Therefore we may appreciate each self and take care of it. We should give the love to ourselves it truly deserves. More than how we give the unconditional love and care to someone else.

Do You Love Yourself?

ave you ever asked this question to yourself? If not, then try to ask yourself now. Because if we were going to ask people the word: do you love yourself? some of them may answer yes including me. But as a matter of fact, we sometimes make an actions and decisions in our lives that contradict the words I love myself. And some people maybe like taking time to answer: feels undecided. Because admit it or not, it is very easy to say the word I love myself or I'm doing the self love. However, it is hard to define how or in what way we do really love ourselves. Other may say they do self love the way; they treat themselves after doing a hard work, paying themselves through buying their wants, getting enough sleep, by keeping their peace of mind, by protecting themselves, taking good care of their health, and more.
