"Be yourself because an original is worth more than just a copy." -
Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun
"When I really loved myself ...
As I began to love myself,
I found that anguish and emotional suffering are only warning signs that I was living against my own truth.
Today, I know, this is ...
AUTHENTICITY.
As I began to love myself
I quit steeling my own time, and I stopped designing huge projects for the future. Today, I only do what brings me joy and happiness, things I love to do and that make my heart cheer, and I do them in my own way and in my own rhythm.
Today I call it...
SIMPLICITY
As I began to love myself
I recognized that my mind can disturb me and it can make me sick. But As I connected it to my heart, my mind became a valuable ally. Today I call this connection ...
WISDOM OF THE HEART
As I began to love myself
I understood how much it can offend somebody as I try to force my desires on this person, even though I knew the time was not right and the person was not ready for it, and even though this person was me.
Today I call it ...
RESPECT.
As I began to love myself
I freed myself of anything that is no good for my health – food, people, things, situations, and everything that drew me down and away from myself. At first I called this attitude a healthy egoism.
Today I know it is ....
LOVE OF ONESELF
As I began to love myself
I stopped craving for a different life, and I could see that everything that surrounded me was inviting me to grow.
Today I call it...
MATURITY
As I began to love myself
I quit trying to always be right, and ever since I was wrong less of the time.
Today I discovered that is...
MODESTY
As I began to love myself
I understood that at any circumstance, I am in the right place at the right time, and everything happens at the exactly right moment. So I could be calm.
Today I call it ...
SELF-CONFIDENCE
As I began to love myself
I refused to go on living in the past and worry about the future. Now, I only live for the moment, where EVERYTHING is happening. Today I live each day, day by day, and I call it...
FULFILLMENT

Words have the ABRACADABRA effect because they create value judgments that, repeated often, become " magic habits " that consolidate and define your personality. Be careful how you talk to yourself.

We die
EVERY DAY;
because the past time can never be relived
​
​
We no longer need to fear arguments, confrontations or any kind of problems with ourselves
or others.
Even stars collide, and out of their crashing new worlds are born.
Today I know THAT IS “LIFE”!
