gajanan mishra - Love the self first

Love the self first
and then only say
I love you and then
You may say
I love the world.

Who are you to love the world?
Is the world is hankering
after your love?
But if love is not there in you,
Nobody is there to love you.

And without love
you are deprived the blessing
of Almighty, and you are far from
peace and stability within, see.
