Love Yourself First

It’s never a bad decision to choose yourself Love yourself Never water down your magic Your Blackness be regal So keep on shining bright don’t let anyone block the light within you Then you’ll begin to see the God in your reflection No more second guessing Keep rising like the sun know your worth and feel no guilt for loving yourself first

True but hard for those of us who were told to think of others first! I once heard a song with the lyrics "people love people who love themselves"...my daughter debated the singer about his lyrics saying those types of people are usually selfish...his reply was "those who love themselves exude happiness, health and contentment, which draws those who wish to be the same way"...:)
