Starling Fitness: Daily writings on Fitness, Diet, and Health

I saw this quote today and it really helped me:

It reads:

Like threads of silver seen through crystal beads, let love through good deeds show.

• Edwin Arnold

They keep telling us that to love ourselves, we need to repeat affirmations into the mirror, but they are WRONG. The way we tell ourselves that we love ourselves is by being NICE to ourselves. Dress in clean and mended clothes. Eat healthy food. Stay active in a fun way. Take a shower. Meditate daily. Doing all of these things will show yourself love far more than anything you could say to yourself in the mirror.
