So, this may get a little deep (that's what she said). Awhile ago, I started doing a little self discovery. It mainly included going to church and Bible studies and learning what I could about how to be a better human being. If any of you are Christians, you know that a recurring theme is love. Love everyone such as God loves all of us. I will be the first to admit that whole heartedly doing so is not an easy accomplishment. It is still a work in progress. But I have realized that it is starting to work. I have made an attempt to not look at people with judgement, and to realize that they are all just human beings, full of mistakes and imperfections but still lovely, just the same. One of the most beautiful things that has changed, is that it is allowing me to love myself more as well. I, too, am just one of those flawed sinners but I should not be so hard on myself. It is a wonderful feeling and I am glad that I am on the journey I am. I don't know if I will ever have it down pat, but that won't prevent me from trying. :)
'Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against one of your people, but love your neighbor as yourself" Leviticus 19:18
