How do I love myself?

I love my hair, my eyes , my dimples and my smile. I love my skin . I love my fingers and my toes. I show myself I love me by doing my hair the way that I love it , curly. I love my eyes for they show all of my hidden emotions, and the ones I want to show, happiness. I love my smile for mine is one of a kind . My smile proves to me and others that I am truly happy , because when I am my dimples show and I giggle . Then I realize it is possible for me to be truly physically , emotionally and mentally happy . How I show I love my skin is by washing it, by rubbing the sensational creams to make it smooth . I show I am thankful for my skin by showing it off in dresses in summer and tank-tops in spring . I love my fingers for they express my minds creativity . They draw my feelings and write my thoughts down onto a simple piece of paper that I hold close to my heart. I love my toes for they remind me that no matter how old I get I am and always will be a child. I look down and remember my mother tickling my toes and her simple words she spoke. " I love you , for you are mine and God carved you in the most perfect way, the way you were meant to be."
