Being your own special someone
doesn't mean you are self centered,
egoistic or shallow.
It rather means
you don't need someone to be your hero.
You can be there for others and for yourself too
It means you can survive and thrive
by being your own Knight in Shining Armour...
and when the Universe decides to send someone special
on your path, you will know your worth
and how you deserve to be treated.
You will know how to be
a genuinely loving and supporting partner
and will not settle for anything or anyone less
You can be an amazing person to someone elseonly when you are an amazing person to yourselfTo be relevant to someone elseyou need to feel relevant to yourself
