Self Love

Today I love myself and will eat like it! – Myra McN

I love myself.
Not a way of saying
I think the world of me,
that I think I’m the center,
that I want my own way,
intend to be as beautiful,
as witty, as popular as a star.
Not in an egotistical
narcissistic way.
I love myself.
I don’t have to be worthy,
don’t need to deserve it,
don’t even need to believe it.
I will say it until I believe it
and I will treat myself
as though I’m worthy of love
not only from my higher power,
my friends, my family, anybody…
I love me and will treat me
as I would treat anyone else
who was as worthy as the most important
of all the people in the world.
