"To love onself is the beginning of a life-long romance." - Oscar Wilde

Well, here I am almost a year-and-a-half later after my last post. I'm still in school but have a more positive outlook on life in general. I am learning to take care of myself both physically (by eating healthy, nutritious foods and exercising regularly) and emotionally (by reading self-development books and visiting a psychotherapist that is helping me with my fear of intimacy and self-esteem issues. It's the first day of 2013 and I know this year is going to be great! I am willing to learn to love myself and that's why I love the above Oscar Wilde quote -  it's important to be in love with oneself and to love spending time with oneself and treasuring our being because by necessity we will be spending every minute with our self for the rest of our lives. With no one else will we have such an intimate connection, not even our lovers. So my first and foremost new year's resolution is: To Love Myself Unconditionally and Accept Myself As I Am.
