When we love a person, we accept him or her exactly as is: the lovely with the unlovely, the strong with the fearful the true mixed in with the façade, and of course, the only way we can do it is by accepting ourselves that way.
I read this quote from Fred Rodger of Mister Rodgers Neighborhood and his words speak to the core of self love in order to love others.
I need to give myself positive self talk, laugh at my mistakes, accept that I am enough with my faults and imperfections.
I always thought that loving others has nothing to do with loving me….love to others is giving to others easy right? Maybe not so much. The love I have to give others needs to come from a place of compassion within my soul. A gentleness with me, then I have a gentleness with others, forgiveness of me, allows me to forgive others, love of self. Then I can love others with true compassion.
Becoming Jayne loving me first......
