Today is Valentines Day. It is not just for couples. Today provide yourself with self-love. Love yourself unconditionally. I believe that it is only when you can do those things for yourself that you can truly accept and appreciate the love that comes from others.
I borrowed this from http://www.livestrong.com/article/14737-unconditional-self-love-and-self-acceptance/#ixzz1DT4yXXfT.
To accept and love yourself unconditionally is to:
* Place no condition on yourself as to how to behave or what to be in order to receive self-acceptance and self-love.
* Not use "if-then" clauses in establishing conditions for accepting and loving yourself.
* Take a risk to be open and vulnerable to who you are with no preset limits or expectations.
* Accept and love yourself for the fact that you exist rather than for what you do.
* Give yourself the respect and latitude to be yourself rather than to be what others want or expect you to be.
* Set the stage for yourself to feel warmth, caring and concern for yourself which results in your growing in self-esteem and self-worth.
So, at least for today, allow yourself to reap the benefits of self love and self acceptance. Happy Valentines Day!
