Self-love, what is it?
Before we learn how to cultivate self-love, we need to understand what it is. It means accepting yourself fully, treating yourself with kindness and respect, and nurturing your growth and well-being. Self-love isn't selfish, but it's selfish if you only love yourself....
The International Day of Friendship was proclaimed in 2011 by the UN General Assembly with the idea that friendship between peoples, countries, cultures and individuals can inspire peace efforts and build bridges between communities. I feel sure that we are all an advocate of these efforts and...
