"Love yourself.  If you can't find your own reason too, how can you ask someone else to do it for you" ~ James Todd Smith

I love that.  Think about it seriously, if you can't love you, how can you expect someone else to love you?  If you know yourself and you don't see anything redeeming or of value inside of you, why should you expect someone else to look for it?  So take some time, think over who you are and the things you do and look for the worth in the person you are.  Love that person.

"If the rest of the world doesn't love you like you think they should or like you want, love yourself.  Be your own Prince or Princess.  Make your own love songs"

Make your own love song.  Or find one and send it to yourself, a song that fits the way you want to be loved or the way you want to love yourself.  Why does that song move you?  What does it say that makes you smile or that resignates within you and your thoughts of love?

"Everyday is a chance to be something more than you were yesterday.  Every minute is a chance to love, to grow, and improve.  Your never done being the best you that you can be, it's a daily process.  Love yourself through it"

My love song for me would be Bruno Mars "Just The Way You Are" I love it.  To me, that's what love should be.  When you love a person, you should love them for what they are, not what they can be, not what you might be able to make them into, not the person time might change them into.  But for the person they are, flaws and all, inside and then out. 

Just The Way You Are Lyrics

Oh, her eyes, her eyes, make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair, falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful, and I tell her every day

Yeah, I know, I know, when I compliment her she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so, sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me do I look ok, I say

When I see your face, there's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing, just the way you are
And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for a while
Because girl you're amazing, just the way you are(yeah)

Her lips, her lips, I could kiss them all day if she let me
Her laugh, her laugh, she hates but I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful, and I tell her every day

Oh, you know, you know, you know, I'd never ask you to change
If perfect's what you're searching for then just stay the same
So, don't even bother asking if you look ok
You know I'll say

When I see your face, there's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing, just the way you are
And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for a while
Because girl you're amazing, just the way you are
The way you are, the way you are

Girl you're amazing, just the way you are

When I see your face, there's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing, just the way you are
And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for a while
Cause girl you're amazing, just the way you are. Yeah
