"Love conquers all things.
Let us, too, surrender to love."
Virgil

Learning to love myself has been one of
the hardest lessons I've had to learn. I
had to discover my capacity for
self-care. I had to listen to the way I
talked to myself and to learn to speak
in more affirming ways. Learning to
smile -- and then laugh -- when I made a
mistake helped me to be less
self-centered and more able to just have
fun.
Life is a great experience when I
surrender myself to the love around
me. Expressing my love to others
increases its quantity and quality
inside of me. We all need to know that
someone loves us and that we are
lovable. Everyone needs to know that
they are sufficient. I've discovered
that as I give love to others, it is
returned to me many times over.
ONE DAY AT A TIME . . .
I will work at expressing unconditional love.
