How Does One Love?

This is a question almost as old as "where did we come from," how does one love?  The most important love that we will ever learn is how to love yourself.  We are taught to not be vain, which I fear most of us mistook for not loving ourselves.  It's alright to think your pretty or talented or funny.  It's alright to find yourself as a whole attractive.  I don't mean how you look necessarily.  I also mean characteristics.  I want you to think about two things (at least) that you like about yourself.  One about your looks and the other about you.  For example, I like my butt and my voice.  If you can't think of anything, think about what others have told you that they like about you.  Take into account how many people have said it, were they rational people, and if you trust these people's opinion.  If all these add up to a good answer, then ask yourself, "Why don't I feel/think that way about me?"  There is no reason not to believe your friends, they won't lead you wrong.  It's not vain if it's true!  Now you don't have to go around thinking that you are the greatest or coolest person in the world, but you should think that you are awesome.  So have you thought it through?  What do you love about yourself?
