Love is a word that comes and go, but few people really know that it means to really love. Loving yourself starts with you first and foremost. It means you have to embrace God, the Creator of love.

Loving yourself means you have to constantly forgive yourself and know that there is no more condemnation for the mistakes you have made in

the past. Loving yourself means you have to let go of all insecurities, and take the courage to accept who you are and who you are becoming. Loving yourself means you are strong and that you can overcome the obstacles and challenges you may face in your lifetime. Loving yourself means that you will continue to seek God for your purpose; and be focused to take care of your temple, mind, body, and spirit. Loving yourself is not about what you can take, but is about what you can give. So in the spirit of love, seek truth and walk away from darkness. Walk in peace joy and celebration because loving yourself starts with you.
