They say you cannot love others unless you love yourself... When you love someone, you do everything you can just to please then and make them happy. How about yourself? What do you do to show you love yourself? My answer. I love who I am. I love myself inside and out. I may not be perfect but I never let my flaws let me down.

I love who i am and i wouldn't let others rule me or change me. Nobody is perfect but at least we are real. Don't let other's will rule of who you really are.

i love my self by respecting my self.. i think it's better to have respect to yourself so that others will respect you too..sometimes, i buy things for my self, taking vitamins and healthy foods and have peace of mind..that's what how i love my self..when i'm loving someone, sometimes, i forget to love my self first because i'm doing everything for that person without thinking that it can make bad to my self..love yourself first before loving other..have a great day..

Cudn't agree with you more.. How true that treat thy neighbours like you treast oneself* It's true that many of us do not like what we look like and want more and keep trying to change ourselves for others and the people we love only if we accepted ourself the way we are it'd make so much of difference and make life more worthy.. I love myself not for the way i look but definately the way i treat people and i always have treated myself well and groomed myself so i guess i want others around me let it be my relative family or friend i treat them with love and make sure they are comfortable around me..and have a good time.. I also don't let negative people put me down..

I think that we can love ourselves by keeping our dignity. There are lots of things we do that can make us look small in the eyes of other people. You might just be bumming around, or having yourself be passed on from one guy to the next that will make you look like a rag and etc. These are just some samples on how you can degrade yourself. If you really love yourself, you make yourself worth the respect of other people. Treat yourself to some rewards if you've done good but don't pamper yourself too much or you'll end up having no discipline at all which will make you look degrading again. How people view you is according to how you conduct yourself. A good day to you!
