How do I see myself.

The way we see ourselves has a profound impact on the way we live our lives and the way we relate to others. So, the question is how do I see myself - as my own sworn enemy or as my own best friend? If I am my own enemy, I am sure to go out feeling worthless and believing, deep inside, that others are going to treat me the same. When I am my own best friend, I go out feeling warmth for myself and, unconsciously, communicating the same warmth to those around. I know in my heart that I am precious as a person and that I am a gift to others; equally that those whom I meet are precious persons and that they are gifts to me. alpostures
