I respect my boundaries, and I insist that others respect them, too.

Each of us at any time and space is doing the very best we can with what we have.

The bottom line for everyone is I'm not good enough. It's only a thought, and a thought can be changed.

It doesn't matter how old you are, there is a little child within who needs love and acceptance.

Experiences come and go; however, my love for myself is constant.

Loving the self, to me, begins with never ever criticizing ourselves for anything. Criticism locks us into the very pattern we are trying to change. Understanding and being gentle with ourselves helps us to move out of it. Remember, you have been criticizing yourself for years, and it hasn't worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens.

I am one with the power and wisdom of the Universe. I have all that I need.
