An Act of Self Love
It is an act of self love to refuse to see anyone who you know will break your heart. It is an act of self love to not knowingly allow anyone into your life who does not consider your needs and desires to be important to them. It is an act of self love to allow only people into your life who have your best interest at heart and will treat you will love and respect.
Otherwise, you have to think seriously about letting them go for you do not want to spend your life surrounded by people who cannot love you because they don’t have their own self love.
This is ME…Like it or Not…
Some days you just have to go against what everyone else is doing, do what is in your heart, be yourself and do what you want. You tell the world…”This is ME, like it or not”
Velinda
“When it seems that everything you do is wrong and everyone is against you, it is the most opportune time to wear your I-don’t-give-a-damn tutu and glide gleefully on the dance floor of “this is my life”

What’s Important is My Opinion
” Life is too short to waste any amount of time on wondering what other people think about you. In the first place, if they had better things going on in their lives, they wouldn’t have the time to sit around and talk about you. What’s important to me is not others’ opinions of me, but what’s important to me is my opinion of myself”

What we Believe in our Heart
We must continue on with integrity for what others think or believe about us doesn’t matter. What matters is what we know in our heart and soul as truth.
“We must not allow other people’s limited perceptions to define us.”
Virginia Satir
First Love Yourself
“You cannot be any good for anyone else until you are first good to yourself. I also think it is impossible to really love anyone else unless you first love yourself. How can you give another person your best if you do not believe you have anything wonderful to offer”
Larry Winget
The Power of Unconditional Love
There is no power on earth like unconditional love. If you offer it to your child, you are 90% of the way home. To know you always can come back home is going to make for a better human being” Warren Buffett
Don’t Compare Yourself to Others
“Don’t compare yourself to other people…don’t compare, don’t compare, don’t compare! It doesn’t matter how much more others have in any area, you are beautiful exactly the way you are. And when you start to accept this, find the best of what is in you and make use of it, life will be beautiful as well.” Velinda
