Before You Save Someone Else, You Must Save Yourself First!

“Learning to love yourself, is the greatest love of all 🎶 ”- ( The greatest love of all Song lyrics)

This song means a lot if you just ponder about it, you can always find your lost self when you started to love yourself.

Inorder to love others we must love ourselves first, we can never share the right form of love to our fellow, our family, friends and opposite sex when we cannot love ourselves in the first place.

Before you save others you must save yourself first

How to save yourself from falling deeper into darkness? There are stuffs you must avoid inorder to save yourself before it's too late, nobody can help you except yourself especially if the battle is between you and yourself.

Avoid situation or a person if it's too much already

If a situation or a person does not bring any good on you or they are too much to bear you should avoid them inorder to have your peace of mind. It doesn't matter what they are going to tell about you, their opinions is not your business anymore.

Step back if things are getting toxic

When a person or a situation cannot help you grow as a person you should step back, especially in relationships. Partners should help each other grow instead of pulling down or ruining each other. If a person does not help you grow and nurture what's best in you they are not the right people to be with you on your journey until you reach your destination.

Leave when a situation or a person ruins you already

A certain situations or a person who already ruined your whole being will never bring any good to you anymore, if they did it once they'll do it again and again. A person who doesn't leave when they are already ruined are masochist. No matter how other people try to pull you or save you if you yourself doesn't make a move they can't do anything about it.

Ed Sheeran said “Before I can save someone else, I've got to save myself first.”

You can never be a hero to others if you can't be a hero to yourself first.

Endnotes:

Sometimes we care too much what other people think about us that can cause hindrance to avoid situations or the people that cannot help us grow.

Sometimes we care too much about the years we've shared or we've spent on a certain situations or persons that makes us hard to let go of them even if the relationship isn't healthy anymore.

If a person or a situation can give too much toxicity in you then you shouldn't hesitate to let go because in letting go we will find our lost self and we will have a new beginning, something that will help us grow as a person.

Until next time.. thank you for reading.
