Michel de Montaigne, a French writer, once said, "Lend yourself to others, but give yourself to yourself." Don't get me wrong, I love volunteering and helping others, however, one thing I have come to realize is we have to take care of ourselves first, we have to show ourselves love and affection before anyone else.

Today's song is "Take Care of Yourself," by Teddy Thompson.

Lyrics:

It's time for us to part
Yeah it's best for us to part
Oh but I love you
I love you
Take care of yourself
I'll miss you

The nights are long alone
I sit alone and moan
'Cause I love you
I love you
Take care of yourself
I'll miss you

And no more tears to cry
I'm out of goodbyes

It's time for us to part
Although it breaks my heart
'Cause I love you
I love you
Take care of yourself
Take care of yourself
Take care of yourself
I love you
