Love cannot come from where love is not. We cannot express love from within us for another if there is no love for ourselves within us.

Self-love is a good thing but self-awareness is more important. You need to once in a while go ‘Uh, I’m kind of an asshole.

start ignoring people who threaten your joy. literally, ignore them. say nothing. don’t invite any parts of them into your space.

If you don't love yourself it's tough to love anything about your life. Appreciating who you are is essential to your happiness.

Of course we need to accept ourselves as we are, but we can't stop there. We also need to value ourselves enough make needed changes.

I want to be the best version of myself for anyone who is going to someday walk into my life and need someone to love them beyond reason.

I cannot be broken. I cannot be killed. I cannot fail. This is my identity. This is my core. I am infinite. I am permanent. I am unbreakable.

Believing in yourself is one of the greatest things that you could ever do for yourself. But the greatest is loving yourself unconditionally.

Living a lie is painful, and doesn’t do anyone any good. I had to be true to myself, because, either way, God would know if I was lying.

Don't forget to pause and nourish yourself a bit along the way. When you're born to help others sometimes you forget to help yourself.
