Respecting yourself
Earning trust within yourself
Showing a healthy body
Protecting yourself from harm
Eating healthy amounts of food
Correcting your mistakes
Trusting yourself
Ignoring negativity
Not harming your self in any way
Getting an education

You are the only one that can be you
Owning you can stand up for yourself
Unable to waste your life
Reaching for success
Supporting & believing in yourself
Earning the love of your family
Loving yourself eternally
Forgiving yourself

The thing that enspired me to write this was my life i was bullied and hurt and abused and yet i was strong enough to over come it and still be me and noone is able to take that from me ever again....
