The arduous journey to self-love

Learning to love ones self is one of the hardest things I’ve tried to do

I can create something out of nothing…

I can change 100,000’s – probably more – over the years…

I can ‘get shit done’…

But love myself?

That’s been a challenge

It’s not that I didn’t like myself

I HATED myself

They say hate is a strong word

And it’s appropriate for how I felt back then

I loved what I did, who I helped, the difference I made and how what I did helped so many

Yet conversely I couldn’t of cared if I saw another day

Self love?

Is hard

Self like

Well, that’s where I’m at now and to be honest – it feels rather good

I’ve come to terms with many of my flaws and failings and made amends where I can, and 

let go of what I can’t

All that does is hold you back

Always try and make things right – for example right now I’m in a position to help some folks out who helped me out when I wasn’t my best


It feels good


It’s been a journey for sure; but I’m happy enjoy being dan

– it’s taken a while –

And have done for little while now

I know what’s important

I know what matters

I know who matters

(And equally know the polar opposites of all of the above)

I’ve learned that it rarely happens when you don’t feel worthy or at the least like yourself

That needs to come first

Without it?

Then you’re likely to make some of the mistakes I made

And if you’re happy as you are just being you


Then that’s awesome
