Self Respect

Self respect is one of the best gifts you can give to yourself. Also, you cannot love and respect others unless you love and respect yourself. Understand that you are unique and special. You need to realize this and live with self-love.

Self Respect

I learned to accept myself today
With all my blemishes

And failings

And skeletons on the shelf

Accept yourself and be bold

Long ago I was told

One cannot love another less

Until he loves himself more

Love cannot be found

By looking out

It must come from within

On stealthy legs

Unbidden

Now I love you more

And the world is warmer

Because I will march

To a better drummer

Love springs forth

On its own

If the launch

Is strong

Love does not walk alone
