Greatest love of all

today's message was quite inspiring. it was about learning to love yourself. how many times do we let our self-value be determined by the society's norms? whether we are thin enough? fair enough? tall enough? how much longer will we have to live up to standards determined by others?

it's high time we learnt to love ourselves, and live not to satisfy other's demands and standards, but to accept ourselves as one who is "fearfully and wonderfully made" by god. let's stop slandering ourselves. in trying to please others in our short life, we forget that it's our life to lead. live up to your own standards, not others'.

greatest love of all - whitney houston

I believe the children are our are future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
Everybody searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
I never found anyone to fulfill my needs
A lonely place to be
So I learned to depend on me

[Chorus:]
I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can't take away my dignity
Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greatest love of all

I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

[Chorus]

And if by chance, that special place
That you've been dreaming of
Leads you to a lonely place
Find your strength in love
