The first law of nature is self-preservation. Cut off that which may harm you. But if it is worth preserving, and is meaningful, nourish it and have no regrets. Ultimately, this is true living and love of self...from within.

About This Quote

I am me because I am me. I am me because I am the only person who knows what makes me happy. My happiness is my own. I have no one to blame but myself if I do not feel happy or sad.

If you are unhappy, it may be because you are not doing what’s best for yourself. The key to being happy is self-love.
