It was originally recorded by George Benson in 1977...it is about teaching children in a positive light...building their self esteem and preparing themselves for the future...to be proud as an individual and to not let anyone define who you are. It has nothing to do with Whitney's personal life as it was written well before we even knew who Whitney was!
It is about her rough marriage to Bobby Brown and her struggles with drug addiction
It means to learn to purely love yourself. The greatest love of all is inside you.
This was written by songwriters Michael Masser and Linda Creed. Linda Creed was recovering from breast cancer when she wrote the song. She died in 1986, just before Whitney took the song to #1 in the US.
Masser and Creed wrote this for the film biography of Mohammed Ali, The Greatest. It was originally recorded by George Benson in 1977. (thanks, Johanna - London, England, for above 2)
Houston's version was originally the B side of "You Give Good Love" but the amount of airplay it received persuaded Arista to release it as a single. (thanks, Edward Pearce - Ashford, Kent, England )

its about learning to love yourself..
It means that the 'greatest', the most important form of love is self-love, to be happy and confident in yourself. Until you accept and love yourself you can't truly love someone else - that's the gist of it, I believe.
hmm i read the other answers but i always thought she was talking about God since she first started out singing gospel and in the church thats my interpretation
Whitney Houston - Greatest Love Of All Lyrics
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 who 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'll 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
That's a beautiful song George Benson sang it first. If you listen to the words closely Its about the children of our future, children need a good roll model someone leading them in the right direction. Someone to teach them to do whats right and not follow what everyone else is doing. To be your self and not let others persuade you in doing something different. Finding love in your self Finding happiness within you and not in another person.
it only says that in order for you to really love others, is to first learn to truly love your self.
you can only give love, if you have love yourself.
you will only know its love, if you experienced it
its like saying, how can you say you love someone it you cant even love yourself...
