I thought I knew what Self Love meant when I was younger in my teen. I was naive and Ms. Happy go Lucky. After some trails and tribulations in my life, and now in my 30s and I finally realize what Self Love really mean.
One of the greatest reward of living alone is you have the privilege to learn about yourself. It is very satisfying to get to know myself everyday. Self Love is not easy as I thought. Everyday is a struggle to balance life's many situations. We have to make a living, pay bills, and in the mean time try to eat healthy, exercise, social, handle life's ups and downs, etc. I moved to Miami about six years ago after my divorce, and I did not know anyone here. I had to start from scratch, and it was very tough at first. Now I can say that I do love living in South Beach, and I am actually happy with myself and enjoy being alone.
It's really amazing that once I get to know who I am, I had an epiphany of knowing exactly what self love is. I can actually say that I love myself. I am living a healthy life and I do not let negative people bring me down. I do not need outside factors to feel love. Living a balance life is the best thing I know that I can do for myself. I am very bless and grateful for my life. Thank you! Happy Self Love!
