Secret For Self Esteem

Come on over here honey-
I’m going to share
a few amazing secrets with you.
Like just between us gals.
They say you have to love yourself
so another can love you.
Well honey!
I truly love me.
I look in the mirror
every morning
and say,
“Hello gorgeous you certainly look radiant
this morning.”
So what I have halitosis,
eyes crusted shut
and few missing hairs on
my shiny baldhead?
I’m still a good lookin’ old gal.
I have a great personality
I smile a lot and laugh
at folk’s silly jokes.
What are a few missing front teeth
with a little tobackee stain?
Minor details.
Now my figure ain’t perfect,
but what are a few hundred extra pounds?
More to love that’s what I say.
Now this is my secret
on loving yourself.
Be sure to do this everyday
Think this very thought
Be sure to tell all your friends
"THAT"
You love yourself so much
You give yourself a hug everyday.
This is a great idea for self-esteem.
Now thar’s folks that will disagree.
Pay no mind.
Cause if you can’t love yourself
You’re in for a whole lot
of
trouble and disappointment.
Once again I remind you
Give yourself
a
great big fat hug everyday.
This is the secret to self esteem my friend.
Don't forget.
A big hug everyday and look in the
mirror and smile and say hello
you gorgeous thing you.
It's a fantabulus day.

LOL Enjoy
Love Bon-Bon

If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.
