Sobering day

Today was, or rather is, a sobering day.  Ever since yesterday I have come to realize that even if the world loves me, I have to love me.  Self-respect and self-love I have learned are keys into losing weight and being healthy.  That is my goal for today, staying healthy.  I have allowed other things to take charge of me instead of me taking charge of my own health.  I am humbled by today's experience.  I realize that I need to remind myself of today's experience.  Life is really too short and every day that passes means a life that could be even shorter.  If I could be wise, then I could be healthy.  I believe I can do this for myself with a little bit of hard work.
