​When you love yourself it is much easier to love others.

Someone told me many years ago to always put others first and yourself last.  I got it with being of service to others and caring for others, but something got me thinking if I don’t love myself how can I love others more. 

I met this old lady one day in a hospital and noticed how caring she was to everyone she met.  After waiting forever to get seen, she said come me son.  When I sat next to her she said I noticed you watching me with all the family.  I said, well yes I thought it was wonderful how loving you are to everyone you meet.  She laughed and said, I was not always so loving.  You see I raised my family and put them all first all the time, then one day I felt worn out and kind of mad.  There I was giving, serving, and doing for everyone and not one person did a thing for me.  I became bitter.  Then live really went bad and I did nothing for anyone and everyone was mad.

I said I don’t understand I just watched everyone love you.  Oh, yes son.  In the mist of the madness I noticed the more I got mad the madder everyone around me got.  That is when I changed to love.  Yes, I discovered when I loved myself, I could easily share love.  I was not giving everything away in my giving or service I was sharing my love in new ways.  As I continued to love me first and share that love everyone around me became more loving and helped me too.

​Give it try

Much joy and love to you and yours
