LOVE MUST BE FIRST AND ONLY - Perfect Love Casts Out Fear; Perfect Fear........

PERFECT LOVE CASTS OUT FEAR! 

“You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.”  –  Gautama Buddha

Self-care, by its nature, demands the action of loving-kindness in order to prevent the avoidable damage often done through thoughtless speech, mindless action, and ignorance. 

Self-love is a journey. It takes dedication, devotion, and practice. Resolve to love yourself each and every day and watch your best self blossom and your greatest life unfold! Self-love is an exponential force.

As much as we want to control our own destiny, the humbling truth is that sometimes the only way to learn self-love is by being loved-precisely in the places where we feel most unsure and most tender. When that happens, we feel freedom and relief-and permission to love in a deeper way. No amount of positive self-talk can replicate this experience. It is a gift of intimacy, not of will-power.
