Now I learned to love my self

Yes, I love myself very much. I learned it last to last year. I went to a new city for job hunt and their I understood the value of me in my life. I got to know that I am good enough to take care of myself, in the process, I got some painful kick also on my butt but still now I thikn that life is too small and you can't loose the time by having a sad face. enjoy and give happyness to others!

I have always suffered with very low self-esteem. I think its just a part of me. Ive always been shy but I am gradually becming less shy. I think i will always to some extent be a shy person - it is who I am but I am nowhere near as bad as I was. Do I love myself? Well I think Im a nice person, a decent human being who has made mistakes in the past like anyone else has but I wouldnt say that I "love" myself. I find the whole love thing to be not for me.
