5.0 out of 5 stars It Brought Tears To My Eyes, November 13, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: When I Loved Myself Enough (Hardcover)

I came across this book while browsing a bricks and mortar book store. I sat down and read it right there. The author's words are so simple yet profound. It made me think..."If I really loved myself, what would I do? And why am I not doing it now?" The author's words have resonated through my entire life, and the story of her life and death really touched me. I can't recommend this book enough.

This review is from: When I Loved Myself Enough (Hardcover)

I was in Paris, in an English bookshop, looking for psychology books, and I came acorss this book, it caught my eye immediately. It's another print by a publisher from London. It's very lovely, the look. I read it and alomost immediately, I was touched and tears came to my eyes. I was reminded that I need to love myself enough, because I am the only person who truly understand all of my needs and my pains, and I am responsible for myself. I thought it was truly a gift from Kim McMillen to the world, she was so kind in sharing her wisdom and life. Thank you, Kim. I will, too, try to love myself.
