My sister bought this book and seems can’t stop talking about it. How good it is and how it become her new bible. When I took a peek in her book, I smiled. I already finished that in my second year in high school. The title probably make you think about romantic relationship between man and women, but I think it’s more about relationship with yourself.
You see, I think at some point, what people saying about how you have to love yourself first before you can love someone else, it’s true in some ways. Some girls who we called bitch, actually are those few of us who has highly respect of themselves and they brave enough to pursue what they want and to cut off every negative people they meet along the way. They don’t give a damn what people saying about them, they’re doing what they have to do anyway.
Basically, the book tell us that in order to get the man we want and to get them to love us the way we want, we have to love our self first. We have to know how to love our self before we can show and tell other people how to love us. Its kind a brilliant actually. I’m not sure I understand everything in the book when I first read it, but now I know exactly what she were talking about.
When I decided to put myself first and start to do things for myself, everything started to change. I surround myself with people who love me and respect me for who I am. Sometimes I find myself a little overwhelmed with their kindness and all their love for me. I’m grateful, of course, but it’s a little surprising, that’s all. It feels like I didn’t do anything, and they come my way, but actually, with me start to love myself and doing things for myself made people respect me more. They see how we take care about our self and they’re trying to do the same. Because we show them how to treat us.
Come to think of it, I think it’s apply to many situations in our lives.
The book teach me how to love myself and how to treat myself with some respect. It teach me a lot than how to get the man I want. It doesn’t mean we have to be selfish and forget about others but for some situation, we have to put ourself first because nobody will love us like we love our self. Besides, when we start to accept who we are and love who we are, we will realized that we don't need anything or anyone to feel loved and we, well, at least me, personally, often feel this huge love and urge to share it to everyone. Nothing big, just treat strangers I meet on the bus nicely or say friendly hi to everyone at office.
Tell me, who doesn't want to be close with someone full with love and nice like that?
It’s a good read, especially for those who’ve been wondering why people seems to treat you like crap and not respect you enough.
Happy reading!
