love myself

For the last two weeks I have set up a reminder for this and it’s really helpful. This is what is says:

Hey,

I love you dearly. I love you for all that you are
unconditionally. Everyday I look forward to spending my time
and getting to know you. Please don’t forget to tell me
whatever is wrong and whatever you need me to do. You are
beautiful, even on the times you think you are not. You are
special. You are smart. You are worth it. You are better
than you think. You are amazing! And don’t you forget it. Go
girl!

When I finish reading it everyday I smile because I am reminded that I am loved by me (also trying to constantly treat myself in loving way). That’s a good feeling. Good times!

I would say for the past 2 years I have been on the journey to loving myself. Through this journey, I’ve realized that we as humans treat almost everyone else better than ourselves! Everyday is choice to treat myself with love. Even if it’s simple things like drinking 8 glasses of water a day, or more difficult things like letting go of that man who doesn’t truly accept you whole-heartedly, showing love to myself is a huge priority that I know will lead me to the peace I seek. And it often amazes me how long I and people I know have been extremely unloving.

So i continue on, sometimes boldly, sometimes timidly, choosing to love myself.
