"Self-love is simply appreciating the miracle of my own being.

When I really love myself, I cannot hurt myself, and I cannot hurt another person.

To me, the answer to world peace is unconditional love. It begins with acceptance and self-love.

I no longer wait to be perfect in order to love myself.

I accept myself exactly as I am, right here and now".

You rule

Learn to be in charge of your life, do not let other people to decide what is best for you. Love is deciding what is best for you without letting others to interfere with your decisions. Responsibility means that you can take a decision and if what you choose things that are wrong you will respond by learning the lesson and assuming that it was your choice.

The practice of responsibility: realizing that we are the authors of our choices and actions; that each one of us is responsible for our life and well-being and for the attainment of our goals; that if we need the cooperation of other people to achieve our goals, we must offer values in exchange; and that the question is not “Who’s to blame?” but always “What needs to be done? Nathaniel Branden.

The great things in this world is not where we are but the direction in which we are moving. Oliver Wendell Holmes.
