There are many definitions of self-love and many philosophies. But today I want you think of it as this: SELF LOVE IS SELF PRESERVATION. SELF LOVE IS SELF PRESERVATION. SELF LOVE IS SELF PRESERVATION.
Self-preservation is the act of protecting, looking after, and caring for your being.
You cannot shop away sadness. You cannot massage away a bitterness. You cannot eat away dysfunction. You cannot MAC make up away the tears. Baby, you have got to do your work.
Self-love is not measured by how many pair of shoes or purses you have, but how much respect you have for your heart soul body and spirit. I urge you to put some respect on your mind heart body and soul. Self-love is reflected by what and who you allow in your life. Self-love shows up in how you treat other people.

Adopt the way we teach your people with diabetes. They always worry, what if he/she does not like I have diabetes? It’s a good question. Here is the thing, you cannot change it even if you had a billion dollars. So, realize this, if they don’t like you with diabetes they will not like you, ever. Move on. There are plenty out there. Say next. It is not you or you with diabetes, it is them.
