“Love recognizes no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at it destination.”– Maya Angelou

“Love is never lost. If not reciprocated, it will flow back and soften and purify the heart.”– Washington Irving

“Love is everywhere, and I am loving and lovable.”– Louis Hay

Nothing great happens without love. Love is life. If you don’t love yourself, you are a stranger to yourself. To know yourself, to be closer to yourself, you must love yourself. You must be comfortable with yourself- with your weaknesses.

Love means acceptance.

It does not matter what other people are doing. What really matters is what you are doing to make your life a success. When you focus on what other people are doing, you are neglecting what is important to you: your life.

Focus on yourself. Everyday is a new beginning. Don’t miss it. You must accept yourself. You must accept your weaknesses. You must accept your failures. You must accept your mistakes. You must not compare yourself to other people. You must live your life. It is your life. You have the right to live it the way you want. It starts with loving yourself. It starts with forgiving yourself. You can’t love yourself without forgiving yourself. You must be willing to forgive yourself. You must be willing to forgive yourself, so that love can grow.

Whatever you are struggling with right now, love can change it. For it to happen, you must love yourself.

Live your life the way you want it. Don’t permit people to dictate your life for you. Living your life on your own terms is a good idea for you. It increases your life as a human being.

Living your life on your own terms means you are in charge of your life. It doesn’t mean you should disrespect other people. Love people. Be kind to people. Be humble. Because humility is the key to success.

Live your life. It is too short. It is yours. Here is how you can live it:

Accept yourself. You can’t live your life if you don’t accept yourself. You must be comfortable with what you don’t like about yourself.

If you want people to accept you, you must first accept yourself. When you accept yourself for who you are, you will feel good about everything in your life. You will feel happier about your life. You will feel good about your job. You will feel good about your relationships. You will feel comfortable meeting new people.

If you are not comfortable with yourself, you will find it difficult to live your life on your own terms. No matter what people are saying about you, ignore them. What matters is what you say about yourself.

Live your life on your own terms. Full stop.
