Giving love to the self

[Cainite]

I think I haven't been my own best friend.

But now I'm seeing myself from outside of me.. and I've finally become sensitive towards the cruelty/abuse I have brought upon me.
That seems like a good starting point! now that I'm sorry about harming myself I can begin to really love myself!
Even though at this stage I'm ashamed of myself still.. because I haven't done much yet. it will take time to undo everything.

If you're already good at giving love to others then just go stand in front of a mirror and try to see yourself from another entity's perspective.. one who is kind and wise. do it the way u look at someone u really care about.
apologize for not being sensitive towards him/her and rebuild the relationship of self with the self with the love you deserve.

The level of one's enlightenment has much to do with realization of one's worth and what he/she deserves.

There is nothing honorable about ignoring/harming the self. being uncaring towards the self is as bad as being uncaring towards other entities.

Love you all
