I Didn't Love Myself And Had To Go To Summer School!!

[shrcumm 953]

I realized that for many years I didn't Love Myself. Loving others and food was more easier then loving me!! I hated the way I looked and allowed many to just come into my life and treat me so bad. As a way of medicating myself I turned to food! It was easier then facing the truth!! I away's wondered why God kept me repeating the same cycle in my life as if I were in a summer school class. Then I got it clear as day. I had to repeat those classes (Life) because I had not learned from my mistakes. If you don't love You then no one else will!! I love myself more and more each day and will never allow food, men. harsh people take advantage of me ever again!! I learned from my mistakes and I am going all the way to being a much better me!!! NO MORE SUMMER SCHOOL!!!

The song that instantly came to my mind when I read your post is "I am coming out" by Diana Ross. Way to go!

I can relate to you. I didn't understand for a very long time what love yourself meant until I gained weight and was depressed all the time. I was always the person I thought I was supposed to be and not who I am. Now I have taken this time to focus on me and I am learning new things about myself all the time. It's very hard, trust me. I have loved someone for years but I'm now realizing they didn't love me for me they loved the opportunity that I was. It hurts but I'm getting through it and it's such a relief to be me & not care about what others think. I'm embarrassed by my finances, I didn't realize how I neglected them. I make pretty decent money but can't a stick of gum on credit. Now I am working on that as well.

I matter. I am great. I am beautiful. I am worth every ounce of sweat and tears it takes to become a better me. No more summer school!!!!
