"We can truly love one another once we love who we are."

Love
"The self-love needed for self-care [is] missing. Academicians use terms like self-esteem, self-worth, self-support, self-care, but rarely self-love. That is left to the spiritual community. People don’t realize that taking care of their own needs; eating, drinking, brushing their teeth, showering, wearing clean clothes, going to work are all acts of self-love."
- Angela C. Santomero
Self-care
"Unless we love and treat ourselves well, we are ill-equipped to do the same for others."
- Angela C. Santomero
