The necessity for love begins with your need to love yourself. Consciously or unconsciously, everyone is trying to enrich and enhance their relationships in some way. Enriching our human relationships is an artwork and a science. For this enrichment to happen’even before we can find and accept love’we have to like ourselves. Through his experience in working with others to heal their discomfort, Dr. Gray provides found patterns and text messages that many folks received while growing up. These text messages will keep us from adoring ourselves’and from caring and receiving appreciate from others. By discovering how these text messages became ingrained in us while we were young and how we are using them today, we can change older patterns and thoughts about ourselves and others aswell as create long-lasting, satisfying relationships. John Grey tells us that “Loving yourself in the presence of others means being able to communicate your inner gifts and abilities without fear. When you do not love yourself and mask your real self, the cycle works in the opposite direction’decreasing like and true personal expression.” Read by the author.
