Learn to love yourself. (14th March 2009, 8.20am)

Only when you know how to love yourself, you are able to love others. Embrace your own flaws and make them your strength. When I say flaws, I meant natural flaws. A good example where everybody can relate to would be physical appearance. Nobody’s born perfectly beautiful. One could rant all he or she can about their physical appearance but a true beauty uses his/her flaws as strength. Everyone’s born with different flaws and each complement one another. In other words, certain physical flaws can be something which makes you unique.

Of course, embracing your flaws does not mean accepting the fact that you are unhealthy and go on eating till obesity. Embracing your flaws by loving yourself means doing anything that benefits yourself in the long run. No, I am not talking about being selfish and do whatever it takes to benefit only you even if it is to harm others. One can only love themselves when they possess a generously kind loving soul. Don’t get me wrong. It’s not about self-sacrificing like burning up yourself to light up other people’s life. It is more like, you can only love and accept others when you know how to love yourself.

If you love yourself, you won’t give up on yourself.

Never look down on yourself despite how people or the environment around you put you down. Because you, yourself will never know what miracles you can do ONE day.

Just a short message from me to you and myself.



Have a lovely day,
Jinni.
