LOVE YOURSELF!
A little self-respect is all we need sometimes especially when we are too focused on others we have exhausted ourselves with not even a single strand of strength left.
We must learn to love ourselves! To love ourselves does not mean that we will set aside others but that we will also take care of our needs so we can better attend to that of others.
When we love ourselves, we learn to appreciate our giftedness and that we should also take care of the many blessings God has given us in our body and in our being and person.
To love ourselves is to know when doing something is helpful or not. We do not overwork ourselves and we do not give what we can no longer give. To love ourselves is to be realistic.
Learn when to say yes and when to say no. We are limited and we also have our won needs. Much as we are slaves of God, He does not want us to become the harassed slave of all!
Take time to sleep; make time to rest. You are not a machine and even machines get overheated when used for so long. Give the best of yourself but also take time to build your best self.
Say good words and do good deeds not because you are expected to but because it is the best thing to do. To love ourselves is to be busy with good and fruitful activities.
Do not think ill-thoughts. You do not deserve to be busy with thinking negatively. Surround yourself with good company and always open your eyes to positive experiences.
Reward yourself from time to time. As you are working hard for others, also take time to give yourself something to remind you that you are doing well.
Write your thoughts. Take time to be in silence and try to collect and gather your ideas. Write non-sense things and your life stories just to keep in touch with your realities.
Acknowledge your flaws. Accept that you are imperfect. Learn to deal with your not-so-good side. Do not be discouraged but learn to them into something positive.
Go out with friends. Take time to enjoy the company of others and the gifts of presence. Be grateful you have them. Befriend as many as you can with the best attitudes possible.
Make time for God. God loves you very much and He can always tell you the best way you can to love yourself. Be intimately united with Him in your heart's conversations.
Love yourself. Love your goodness. Love your giftedness. Love your blessings. Love your flaws. Love the people God has sent for you. Love God in yourself always
