Loving Yourself Before Loving Someone Else
Let's admit this,
"Loving myself is harder than loving someone else". We keep trying to hide under our masks all the time from all the scars of our past mistakes. The me of yesterday, the me of today, the me of tomorrow; with no exceptions, it's all me. Don't be too hard on yourself.
Make peace of our past mistakes, any wounds or scars and keep on learning to love ourselves as loving oneself is indeed an ongoing journey.
Psst: loving myself is not a guarantee for a smooth relationship with our partner but it's a step further for a smooth relationship with our inner self. Tune in to find more @miziwahidpodcast
