Put yourself first in whatever way possible.

I always thought I needed love to be happy.
I thought love was exactly what I was missing in my life and that is why I wasnt okay.

I figured that If I found someone to love me that everything would instantly get better.
That I would do more, that I would be more.
However, in waiting for love, I lost what life really was.
I wasnt living anymore; I was just waiting.
I didnt think about how many years had passed or how many opportunities had passed me by.
I didnt notice myself getting older.
The truth is that you dont need love to be happy.
You dont need to be in a relationship to be happy.
It is one big cliche, but you really do have to start with yourself.
You have to start figuring out who you are now and who you want to be.
Starting with yourself, you find out what truly makes you happy without relying on other people.
I relied too much on people who were never here to help me find happiness.
They let me down time after time, and I never had the courage to walk away.
I never had the strength to realize I deserved a whole lot more than what they were giving me.
The toxic situations kept me trapped through the fear of being alone.
You are the route to your own happiness.
Put yourself first in whatever way possible.
Start small, like with a bubble bath and a face mask, and then work up.
Put your needs first.
But most of all, put yourself out there.
Take every opportunity that comes your way.
Dont let life pass you by while you wait.
Live and dont just survive.
