Our soul is like a soft and gentle flower, it needs to be nurtured, cared for, tended to, with sufficient sunlight, fresh air and freedom to bloom into its most precious and beautiful form. This, my friend, is self-love.

About This Quote

Self-love is a gift that is given to us by nature. It is a gift that can be nurtured and cared for, but it will never bloom into its full beauty without sunlight, fresh air and freedom. We all need to take care of ourselves so we can grow and learn as we move through life. This includes treating ourselves with love and respect.
