When you accept yourself, it eliminates the hunger to have people--those sometimes loving, supportive, loyal, giving, hypocritical, tiresome, venomous, toxic, jealous creatures--accept you.
Love everybody but make sure your constant and loyal companion--yourself--is at the top of the list for people will come and go in your life but YOU will always be there.
For my deep brothers and sisters, the Bible teaches self-denial (saying no to what we want when it conflicts with what God wants) and humility (not arrogant, not prideful, not boastful, acknowledging a need for God and submitting to Him) NOT self-hate.
It took me a minute but when I got it...I got it.
Just keepin' it real...
