From Self Abuse To Self-Confidence
People measure their esteem of each other by what each has, and not by what each is... Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. ~ Ralpho Waldo Emerson
The word 'Courage' comes from the Latin 'Cor' meaning heart. These days we use the word to describe heroic actions, but in its purest origin, it meant "to speak ones mind by telling all ones heart", or in other words, to make yourself emotionally vulnerable.
Self-acceptance as an instrument of Self-Love, is to be forgiving of your imperfections, to accept that you're not a perfect person and that you don't have to be, and that you'll never live up to that image of perfection you've unconsciously created.
Low self-esteem originates from self-abuse, from a lack of self-acceptance of who you are, of who you really are, and not the false perfect image of who you 'should' be.
