oh that was beautiful. It's true, you must love yourself before others, to a degree. Love for yourself can and should only go so far. and though you know you shouldn't need other people's approvil, deep down, you know you do, you crave it like a thirsty man craves water. It's what everyone wants, needs, acceptence from our peers. We all need someone to tell us everyday that they love us and couldn't live with out us. We all need someone in our lives who will hold us, and accept our flaws. It brings me to my favorite quote.
"Love is not blind, it sees more not less, but because it sees more it is willing to see less."
