SELF-ESTEEM
“No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.”
Eleanor Roosevelt
I always used to feel “less than” everyone else, so I’d eat and feel even worse.
Without true love for myself I was dead in the water. I would compare the facts I knew about myself against the impression I had of you. I never seemed to measure up. Without self-love, I was unable to ask for, expect or accept love from others.
When I love myself and treat myself lovingly, it Doesn’t matter what others think of me; what matters is that I do not think less of myself.
One day at a time ...
I ask my Higher Power to show me little ways
to act lovingly toward myself and to know deep within
that I am worthy of being loved by others.
~ Melissa S.
