Our capacity to love others is based on our ability to love ourselves. Unless we can forgive, accept and even appreciate our own imperfections, we are unlikely to be able to do so for others. Discipline in observing our thoughts is required in order to develop greater self-love, especially if we were programmed with blame and shame. When we do begin to relate to ourselves with a natural and easy acceptance, we exude a level of ease and well-being that helps us relate to others with more love and less judgment. Real love works from…
