I need this now. Badly.

Why I love myself today.

- Because most people genuinely like me.

- Because I'm very giving and generous.

- Because I hear my friends - I "see" them - I listen to their issues and desires and try to coach them through their lives.

- Because I am fairly level headed.

- Because I make a mean pot of french pressed coffee.

- Because although I post about how much I rule, I'm a humble gal.

- Because I am a great catch. Seriously. Smile

- Because I am a good person. A really good person.

- Because I won't give up on myself and my healing.

Knoxy,

Just to let you know -- I love this thread so much I created a game in the car with my little girl. On the way to school or daycare, we take turns telling each other one way that we love the other person, then we take turns telling each other one reason why we love ourselves.

I love myself today because I try my best to be a good mom.

Livedthroughit - that made my day. You can never be too young to learn how to love yourself. Woo hoo!!! You go mama!

I also love myself today because of how BRAVE I am. In fact, everyone on this forum is incredibly brave...we have all faced evil and are walking away and moving on. Think how incredible that is.

I love myself today because:

I am a great friend.

I am very good at my job...sometimes better than I realize.

I have been strong enough to move on from the exN and start to trust again.

Because I am generally happy before I go to sleep.

Because I can sleep again.
