Lessons in Love #1

Learn to love yourself before you must love someone else. When you choose to love someone else there are no guarantees that as time goes by that he/she will love you back forever. Go ahead and love all the way, but reserve some love for yourself. Do not stop evolving as a person. Keep learning and doing what interest you. You would not want to wake up one day and not have an identity. Don't let your happiness depend on how the person you love feels. This is most specially true if the person you love is on a spiral down to the deepest hole. Keep your own values...Do not smoke just because he smokes...don't do drugs just because that's the only way you can really bond as one. Get my drift? Love yourself. Cherish yourself. Respect you.
