When I look in the mirror, I know I’m looking at someone who isn’t sure she deserves to be loved at all.

Nicholas Sparks
About This Quote

When we look at ourselves in the mirror we see a reflection of our entire life. It is this mirror that we use to determine whether we deserve love or not. We know that love should be something freely given and people should want to be loved for who they are and what they truly bring to the world. When we look at our own reflection, we see someone who isn’t sure she deserves to be loved at all.

She is also unsure of herself and does not believe that she deserves others love and kindness. Self-esteem needs to be developed and taken seriously if we want to develop into the people that we should be.
