Be Your Own Best Friend: How Self-Acceptance Transforms Your Life

"I accept you just as you are. You are simply my friend. I accept you out of pure love for you. If you limp, I won’t ask you to dance. If you don’t like someone or something, I won’t invite them along when we’re together. If you’re hungry, I’ll feed you. I won’t break you into pieces to understand you better. You are not this action, nor that one, nor the sum of all your actions. I will not judge you based on your words or deeds."— Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Citadel

Now, read these words again as if they were directed at yourself. Observe your feelings and emotions.

Be your own best friend!
