I feel that self-love is essential; I enjoy helping others and go a long way in doing so, but I also believe that I must take care of myself; if I want to care for someone, I can only help if I exist and am happy, and I can only be happy if I love and care for myself too. If I am not satisfied with myself, I will eventually fail to make others happy and will become exhausted! Thanks for the great read, Carrie! :)
