SELF LOVE

2016-08-15-13-17-00-316

Hello beautiful people happy Sunday! today’s post is just an inspiration from my pastor, you know that kind of vibe you get from the pastor’s preaching in church and you just can’t keep calm.

I’m going to be talking about ‘SELF LOVE’ I think the most important thing in life is self-love, because if you don’t have self-love, and respect for everything about your own body, your own soul, your own capsule, then how can you have an authentic relationship with anyone else?; The bible says ‘for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son just for our sake. Love is giving and appreciating. If you don’t love yourself, you can’t give out that love to others, because sometimes the way you see yourself, that’s how you see other people. If you’re not happy about how you look, you have to question how much self-love you have. Self-love has very little to do with how you feel about your outer self. It’s about accepting all of yourself.

Experience proves that in this life peace and satisfaction are had, not by the listless but by those who are fervent in God’s service. And rightly so. For in their effort to overcome themselves and to rid themselves of self-love, they rid themselves of the roots of all passion and unrest. Had we not loved ourselves at all, we could never have been obliged to love anything. So that self-love is the basis of all love.Self-love has very little to do with how you feel about your outer self. It’s about accepting all of yourself. 2016-08-15-13-05-51-0882016-08-15-18-04-27-256

What men have called friendship is only a social arrangement, a mutual adjustment of interests, an interchange of services given and received; it is, in sum, simply a business from which those involved propose to derive a steady profit for their own self-love. I am a recovering narcissist. I thought narcissism was about self-love till someone told me there is a flip side to it. It is actually drearier than self-love; it is unrequited self-love. I am a feminist, and what that means to me is much the same as the meaning of the fact that I am Black: it means that I must undertake to love myself and to respect myself as though my very life depends upon self-love and self-respect. 2016-08-15-17-50-53-680

Thus self-love as one part of human nature, and the several particular principles as the other part, are, themselves, their objects and ends, stated and shown. learn to love yourself first, then you will be able to pass that love to someone else.

I hope today’s post inspires someone out there reading this blog. Yea, did you guys spot that red top on me; we all know red color is all about love and yes i was so happy that sunday because i was wearing a red top lol; I PRAY THAT THIS WEEK BRINGS OUT THE BEST IN YOU! AMEN

  1. I’ve spent all year working on myself…meditating, writing, nurturing myself. The end result is that I have just now learned to love myself, and realized I am finally capable of feeling the love of others. It’s beautiful:)

    I completely agree with you… self-love is very important and especially because God tells us in His Word that He created us in His image, meaning Jean perfectly created us. Great post and you are looking beautiful. Thank you for dropping by on my blog and showing some love ♡
