LOVE YOURSELF
The world is at peace when one loves onself. Ostensibly it smacks of selfishness as loving oneself would on the surface would mean not bothering about others but oneself A bit of analysis will reveal the goodness of loving oneself.
When one loves oneself it is assured that there is a good relationship maintained with those around, the surroundings are kept clean, care is taken to maintain good health . A healthy person is an asset to the world One stays away from doing things that gives one a guilty conscience. A guilty conscience takes interferes with good sleep and what have you.
It is often seen when one is left to fend for oneself there is more effort put in to see that life is on an even keel, the best of the best emerges and that is when one realises taking care of oneself by oneself is the best solution to love oneself
This peom says it all
When you are left alone to fend for yourself
When those that you cared for put you on a shelf,
The best of the best comes out of you
Your life gets a hue totally new
Your limbs become stronger, your mind alert
You no longer worry; you can handle the hurt
The artist in you comes to the fore,
You can write and paint as never before
You choose to discard what bears you down
And pick only that that takes away your frown
Life is great you happen to find
Tis easy to relax and truly unwind
The dark clouds that were are there no more
Its peace and quiet that touches your core
Its your time to do whatever you please
Giving your life a renewed lease
He will be there when others flee
He is your support He helps you with glee
He walks with you through thick and thin
He is there inside you just look within.
There is a saying charity begins at home Depriving oneself and trying to reach out out is not the best approach How can one help another if help is required in the first place to the one who plans to reach out?
Being self sufficient is the way to go and for this one needs to first love oneself and do things that will help one reach there.
Loving oneself also has an element to reach out as when one gives rather than receives there is more joy in doing it.
Wikimedia says it too
Love yourself first and everything else falls into line
