@ 一旦我開始愛自己…
一旦我開始愛自己，我發現苦惱和精神上的折磨都只是警告的徵兆，告訴我並沒有活在自己的真實裡。
今天，我知道這就是「真實性」。
一旦我開始愛自己，我了解當我將欲望加諸在某人身上時是多麼地傷人，即使我明知時間不對，這人也尚未準備好，而甚至那個人是我自己…。
今天，我稱它為「尊重」。
一旦我開始愛自己，我就不再渴望擁有不一樣的人生，因為我看見了周圍的一切，都是在邀請我成長。
今天，我稱它為「成熟」。
一旦我開始愛自己，我明白在一切狀況下，我都是在正確的時間，處在正確的位置，而且一切都在精準的時刻裡發生，所以我可以從容不迫。
今天，我稱它為「自信」。
一旦我開始愛自己，我不再操縱我自己的時間，不再為將來規劃大型的目標。今天，我只會做能讓我喜悅和快樂的事，我喜歡做我開心的事，而且我是用我自己的方法，自己的步調去做的。
今天，我稱它為「簡單」。
一旦我開始愛自己，我會脫離所有對我健康無益的東西，包括食物、人、事情、環境，以及會讓我沉淪和遠離自我的一切。剛開始我稱它為健康利已的態度，今天，我知道這是「自我之愛」。
一旦我開始愛自己，我不再試圖讓自己永遠都是對的，從那以後，我犯錯的時間就更少了。
今天，我發現這就是「虛心」。
一旦我開始愛自己，我就不想活在過去和擔心未來，現在，我只活一切正在發生的當下。
今天，我是一天又一天地活每一天，而我稱它為「圓滿」。
一旦我開始愛自己，我認出我的頭腦會阻礙我並讓我生病，但是，一旦我與我的心連結，我的頭腦就變成了珍貴的夥伴。
今天，我將這連結稱為「心的智慧」。
我們毋需害怕議論與爭執，或是我們與他人之間的任何問題，即便是星辰碰撞，它們墜落之後才會產生新世界。
今天，我知道這就是「生命」。
As I Began to Love Myself
As I began to love myself I found that anguish and emotional suffering are only warning signs that I was living against my own truth.
Today, I know, this is “AUTHENTICITY”.
As I began to love myself I understood how much it can offend somebody As I try to force my desires on this person, even though I knew the time was not right and the person was not ready for it, and even though this person was me. Today I call it “RESPECT”.
As I began to love myself I stopped craving for a different life, and I could see that everything that surrounded me was inviting me to grow.
Today I call it “MATURITY”.
As I began to love myself I understood that at any circumstance, I am in the right place at the right time, and everything happens at the exactly right moment. So I could be calm.
Today I call it “SELF-CONFIDENCE”.
As I began to love myself I quit steering my own time, and I stopped designing huge projects for the future. Today, I only do what brings me joy and happiness, things I love to doand that make my heart cheer, and I do them in my own way and in my own rhythm.
Today I call it “SIMPLICITY”.
As I began to love myself I freed myself of anything that is no good for my health – food, people, things, situations, and everything that drew me down and away from myself. At first I called this attitude a healthy egoism.
Today I know it is “LOVE OF ONESELF”.
As I began to love myself I quit trying to always be right, and ever since I was wrong less of the time.
Today I discovered that is “MODESTY”.
As I began to love myself I refused to go on living in the past and worry about the future. Now, I only live for the moment, where EVERYTHING is happening.
Today I live each day, day by day, and I call it “FULFILLMENT”.
As I began to love myself I recognized that my mind can disturb me and it can make me sick. But As I connected it to my heart, my mind became a valuable ally.
Today I call this connection “WISDOM OF THE HEART”.
We no longer need to fear arguments, confrontations or any kind of problems with ourselves or others. Even stars collide, and out of their crashing new worlds are born.
Today I know THAT IS “LIFE”!
~ Self Love Poem by Charlie Chaplin
