LOVING ME.

I have to love myself,

Because I am beautiful.

Because I give more than I imagine,

Because I must ignore what they think of me.

I have to love myself,

Because I am strong.

Because I am a fighter,

Because I need to learn to listen to my own.

I have to love myself,

Because I am light and strength.

Because I am life and illusion,

Because I learn to love my complexes.

I have to love myself,

Because I have a different personality.

Because I am radiant,

Because I have guitar curves.

I have to love myself,

Because I stay physically active.

Because I am a good woman,

Because I have a future to undertake.

I have to love myself,

Because I am weak and strong at the same time.

Because I'm good,

Because I am self-sufficient.

I have to love myself,

Because I'm worth it.

Because I'm grateful,

Because I see life in another way.

I have to love myself,

Because I'm perfect,

Because I smile,

Because I know how to live my way.

I have to love myself,

Because I love my being,

Because there are no ties,

Because I do not hide.

I have to love myself,

Because I want to do it.

Because there are no prejudices,

Because I am a human who loves herself.

"I love myself because I have Guitar curves..." We are intricately made
and have precious gems to treasure and preserve. Once in a while,
someone will appreciate that perhaps we are a "People whisperers".
Never under-estimate the Gift of yourself that you so freely give.
truly, Pat

We have to possess love to give love, have courage to display it, have compassion to share and have generosity to give thanks. Love to others what you like unto yourself. Kudos.

Nothing wrong with a little self adoration as long as you can keep the lid on it....I reckon this will increase your fan base considerably..... Cheers, Neville
