First, you must care <br><br>enough about yourself to be careful and sensible. <br><br>Hold your mind and body in high regard. You have <br><br>been making choices since the time you were little <br><br>and those choices become more and more important <br><br>to your future as you grow. We are sometimes told <br><br>that in order to give love, we must first love ourselves <br><br>and understand the miracle of being alive. That self <br><br>love radiates from you - out to others in the form of <br><br>self esteem. The wonder of it all is that you are one <br><br>of a kind in a world of billions. And can you imagine <br><br>that there is no one else in the whole world who is <br><br>absolutely, completely like you? Accept yourself, <br><br>protect yourself, make healthy choices and think <br><br>of yourself as a wonderful gift. <br><br><br><br> <P ALIGN="center"><a href="cyberhugs.htm">Back</a> <br><br> </body> </html>
