I’ve never had a very high self-esteem but some things happened in my life…I thought they’d crumble my confidence but although I was feeling down, I had no other choice but to move on, and somehow I found the strength within myself to pick myself off the floor.
I’ve realised that I’ll never be happy if I only wait for other people to “see” me and love me but not do that myself.I have to show people what I’m made of, so they know what they may have been overlooking.
And I think I love myself now.
I think so because I know I deserve a great life.
I think so because I don’t let myself be treated like crap.
I think so because I spend more time taking care of my health and appearance.
When I go out, I don’t think that everyone is looking at me and thinking how ugly I am…anymore.
I think so because I pamper myself with doing things I love and spending time with people I care about.
Happiness comes from the inside.I think I’ve found it.I’m not happy for any particular reason, it’s just the state of feeling complete and being satisfied with the individual that I am.I’m going to change sometime, but certainly not for others.
People…You all are SO unique.

Had those before but can’t get enough.
I don’t know why, but conversations late into the night seem a lot deeper.
I think I’ll have a new scoop of them when I stay over at my best friend’s house for the next 2 weeks.
I also like the exchanging of words when the lights are already off and you’re lying in your bed somewhere in between of sleeping and being awake. :)

Today I was bored sitting in a cafe so I wrote a small poem (as good as it could get during those 5 mins that I was drinking a milkshake), tore that sheet out of my notebook and hid it between the napkins.I hope that someone nice will find it.The next time, I’ll also make sure to decorate it.
