To truly love myself- this I resolve
To guard with zeal my tenderness of heart
Of every care and doubt myself absolve
And fortify and strengthen every part
To cherish and accept the inner me
Unleash and relish each forbidden dream
The woman that I am, to set her free
in wanton joy to bathe in passion's stream
I do resolve to be my dearest friend
To celebrate the wonders that I own
To vindicate my truth and not pretend
To shine around the goodness I’ve been shown
A short time I have left to truly shine
And thus I vow to make my living fine
Eileen Manassian
The person you need to care most about is yourself. Only YOU will be there till the end of YOUR journey. You must love yourself enough to stand for what you believe is right...enough not to be trampled on....enough to believe that nothing and no one can bring you down. It's a good resolution. One I plan to keep.
