Lovely! I was thirty-four years old before I finally learned to love myself. Sometimes it takes a hard awakening, but it is well worth it! Very nicely penned.
Beautiful piece. This is one of the hardest job I find in most people. We can love everyone else but then not take care of self. It is not being selfish, it is the beginning of love.

In order to be oneself then a person has to love themselves.Loving yourself is one of the best feelings that a person can have.It raises their self esteem and can achieve things in their lives if they just put their minds to it.A good poem,take care
These words are taught to us early on..yet for some reason...they are hard to believe...to truly feel....and altho it is good that we love ourselves...it's not so easy is it? Well... practice makes perfect... so I've been practicing a very long time...and altho I love me alot...I still have my trembling moments....:-)) This write is good. lindalaw

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
