LOVE OF THE SELF

Self-love is,

Loving the being that you are,

It is learning to be comfortable in your own body,

It is slowly learning to forgive yourself,

When you find yourself learning,

When you find yourself growing.

Self love can be,

Tough at times,

Especially when you have to hold yourself accountable,

It becomes simple,

When you accept who you are,

No matter what your skin tone is.

Self love is,

Taking care of yourself,

Talking sweet words to oneself,

It is reaffirming and confirming,

That you are a breathtakingly beautiful being,

It is being the best that you can be,

It is where Love starts.

Self love is all these things put together,

And a little bit more.
