At first, I never understood when people said you have to love yourself before you can love others. I thought it sounded selfish and didn't make sense especially when I loved animals and helping others, even if I was unhappy about my own life. However, I started to realize that those who have self-love (or rather self-compassion), can easily forgive those who wrong them intentionally. Those who don't feel self-love cannot stand when another person injures what little worth they have. When you comprehend your own self worth, you can forgive anyone and anything. To honor yourself translates into honoring others and seeing the connectedness of all life.
