Loving Yourself

One of the hardest thing anyone can go through in their life is learning to love themselves for who they are or how they look without any type of hesitations about expressing who they are. With society’s expectation of how a person show be based on their ethnicity, religion hair color, body type. Heck! Even their sexuality, people tend to believe that their true self is something that will be looked down upon because they aren't living up to the things and “expectations” people want to see or believe should.

If this describes you, just know being yourself and being able to love yourself will help you live a happier life –I feel like I say this quite a bit, but hey it’s true-.

There aren't many tips I can really give you which will help you love yourself that is something that comes with growing as a person and becoming confident who you  are- even though you may never fully know who you are...That probably doesn't make sense. One thing I can suggest though, is whenever you look into the mirror and you feel down about yourself look into the mirror and find something you love about yourself – it doesn't have to be just physical maybe you like the way you laugh or how helpful you are- and write it on the mirror with a dry erase marker.

Every time you find something you love write it on the mirror until you completely run out of space. But, don't stop there! Keep going keep writing things down if it’s on a notecard or in a spiral. DON'T STOP WRITING.  Again this is something you stretch out for ages if you say something that funny and you get a few laugh write it down so you can remember a good time or if you receive a compliment write it down so you can reminisce on that particular moment where you felt extra special – I mean to me your special already-.

As you make your journey throughout life and learning you love yourself just know there are tons of people who love you for you –including me- and want nothing but the best for you.
