Love Self: the beginning of a romance

As to love self, does one really could fall in love with self and start the so called lifelong romance? I think so.

"To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance." - Oscar Wilde

I suggest you to start with taking a nice picture of yourself, or better than this, get out of your rut to find a rambling painter ideally along seashore, who could capture the image of your soul, the most beautiful expression of your soul.

Love Self

No one could meet our expectation in a perfect way. And there is no way for any of us to change another person in a manner that we wanted them to be. What power do we have then? We can always improve self to the extent as far as we like. The beauty we seek for actually lies in ourselves, something that could come alive by our own efforts. No one understands us better than ourselves.

We are our own best allies and the only loyal company during the whole life from birth to death. By falling in love with self, we do not doubt self or blame self for other's fault. We begin to respect self as we appreciate self, including finding the courage to lay down all the burdens and walk away from our troubles calmly and peacefully without degrading and torturing ourselves.

If we love self enough, then we feel secure and become confident enough to avoid a lot of life pitfalls, such as emotional paranoia derived from lack of self confidence. When we start lifelong romance with self, we no longer live in fear of losing love from others.
