Love myself ❤

How can we love ourselves after seeing our own flaws? It becomes even more complicated when we realize that we tend to make ourselves the victim of a situation and eventually try and get people to acknowledge the same. But then it occurred to me that loving myself wouldn’t mean ignoring my flaws and just sitting there doing nothing about it except for shouting these words “I love myself” out to the world, whereas deep down these flaws keep making me feel ugly.

I guess loving myself would mean being brave enough to track down my weaknesses and make strong actions to try and eliminate them (especially the ones harming my growth) because that would be a sign that I love myself enough to cross mountains of procrastination, oceans of guilt, deserts of self-hatred and dense forests of self-victimization. A sign that I love myself enough to work hard enough and have no remorse at the end of the day. A sign that I can prove first to myself and then to the world that I am worthy of what I have right now.

After knowing what loving myself means, I want to love myself. And if I take a more precise look at it, I already love myself a little that I cared enough to write about it. It gives me immense pleasure thinking how much I can give myself and in turn to the world just by a little more effort here and there.

I guess that’s it. Till the next time:

See ya later!!!
