When did it happen?
@NickBulanovv
I think about the days I used to be confident.
I used to take life by the horns, and I loved every minute of it.
More importantly, I loved who I was when I did.
@NickBulanovv
So, when did it happen?
When did I forget how to love myself?
Maybe you did the same thing, too.
Youd do anything for the people in your life.
But what about you?
What do you do for yourself?
Thats the thing: falling in love with someone else is easy.
Falling in love with yourself isnt.
Because falling in love with yourself is a process.
Its learning to forgive yourself.
For every mistake, every letdown, every downfall.
Its looking past your flaws and accepting your imperfections.
Maybe we ought to treat ourselves the way we treat the people we love.
Maybe we should buy ourselves flowers and treat ourselves to our favorite meals.
Maybe we deserve it.
So say nice things about yourself, do nice thinks for yourself, and love yourself.
Love yourself deeply and endlessly and unconditionally.
Like youre your own best friend, your own lover, your own confidante.
Love yourself the way you love others, without judgment or resentment.
Remember that you deserve every ounce of love you give.
Remind yourself every day.
And it wont be easy.
It may take days, or weeks, or months.
But love yourself anyway, even when you dont like yourself.
Dont give up on yourself.Even on bad days, you are worth it.
Not because someone else thinks you deserve it,but because you know you do.
And thats something worth remembering.
