Good morning/evening all of you absolutely amazing people!!! =0) I do hope as always that this finds you at the top of your day and with the feeling of success. I thought this declaration was pretty amazing and definitely wanted to share it on this site for sure. I think everyone has something that we don't quite feel like we are the best at, or don't deserving of something. Well I would say that is wrong to the highest degree. We are all wonderful, beautiful and intelligent people, and everyone of us has something special to give the world. We all have a piece of this giant puzzle that makes everything work. So today when you feel a bit down go to a dark room somewhere or in the bathroom if you are really gutsy with a chance someone might walk in and SCREAAAAMMMMM "I love myself and I can do anything" (Now you see why the chance of someone walking might be weird) but if they do who cares because it is true. Alright everyone have an awesome day and cheers!!! =0) Much love to you all.
My Declaration of Self-Esteem

The following was written in answer to a 15-year-old girl's question, "How can I prepare myself for a fulfilling life?"
I am me.
In all the world, there is no one else exactly like me. There are people who have some parts like me but no one adds up exactly like me. Therefore, everything that comes out of me is authentically mine because I alone choose it.
I own everything about me- my body, including everything it does; my mind, including all my thoughts and ideas; my eyes, including the images of all they behold; my feelings, whatever they might be -- anger, joy, frustration, love, disappointment, excitement; my mouth and all the words that come out of it -- polite, sweet and rough, correct or incorrect; my voice, loud and soft; all my actions, whether they be to others or myself.
I own my fantasies, my dreams, my hopes, my fears. I own my triumphs and successes, and all my failures and mistakes.
Because I own all of me, I can become intimately acquainted with me. By doing so, I can love me and be friendly with me in all my parts. I can then make it possible for all of me to work in my best interests.
I know that there are aspects about myself that puzzle me, and other aspects that I do not know. But as long as I am friendly and loving to myself, I can courageously and hopefully look for the solutions to the puzzles and for to find out more about me.
However I look and sound, whatever I say and do, and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time is me. This is authentic and represents where I am at that moment in time.
When I review later how I looked and sounded, what I said and did, and how I thought and felt, some parts may turn out to be unfitting, and keep that which proved fitting, and invent something new for that which I discarded.
I can see, hear, feel, think, say and do. I have the tools to survive, to be close to others, to be productive, to make sense and order out of the world of people and things outside of me.
I own me and therefore I can engineer me. I am me and I am okay.
P.S Newbies you can search for old posts of the day by searching my subject line, and I want to see some bumps today like you mean it like you are a rockstar!!! Lets spread this word today of being US and the people that we LOVE......ourselves! =0)
