Hey guys, welcome to my blog, so today I will be talking about my favorite quote, which is self-love is not selfishness. Yes deciding to love yourself and put yourself first is not selfishness my brothers and sisters.
The truth is nobody wants to associate themselves with people that always wants to appear in a pitiful way, when you always put your problems first and decides to look like them omo you are killing yourself oh and your self worth as well.
The truth is when you always present yourself to be pitied, you will never go beyond that realm both physically and spiritually. So I will be telling us about a beautiful love story, a young man fell in love with a beautiful young lady in his level, after few attempts to get the girl to be his girlfriend, he finally succeeded.
This girl now fell so much in love with this guy that she forgot how to love herself. She would pray for the guys, make sure he eats, washes his clothes, call time to time to check up on him, if this guy falls sick she would pulse her school activities and be with him till he recovers, whenever this guy needs her, she's present no matter how inconvenience it is she wouldn't mind risking it to ensure she meets up with guy's demands.
She would even refuse other guys coming for her, even those that came to her parents to ask for her hand in marriage, even though knowing her current man don't really have anything much to offer.
Now on the other hand the guy also loves her so much and can't also stay a day or two without seeing her, but it still didn't balance because the girl's love was just too selfless, but the girl has a little challenge which was appearing weak and pitiful before the guy all the time and this guy because of that particular act or behavior decided to end things with her.
Omo she wasn't expecting what actually hit her that very evening, this lady cried and cried, she pleaded with the guy for weeks getting to two months still the guy's mind was made up.
So one day she was chatting with one of her friends (a guy)
and she told him about everything that had happened and how she's still hurting and still begging this guy but he didn't care to look at her twice.
So her friend told her, babe the only advice I will give to you right now is, use one week to love yourself and you might just discover your value.
She took the advice and stopped crying, she went to her tailor friend and sew nice two dresses and started dressing better than she was dressing, she was always looking smart and putting on a big cute smiles on her face, lol you won't believe what happened next.
The same guy that broke up with her started coming back and begging, long story short after begging her for so long she became so soft and she decided to accepted his apologises but this time around maintaining her self-love standard.
This is to someone out there who feels she's not worth self-love because problems of life are just too much for her to handle, please note that when you treat yourself with so much love you will attract people who would help you without even knowing you have any problems going on in your life.
SELF-LOVE IS NOT SELFISHNESS.
