Love yourself

I know I love myself, but I’ve never told myself that before. No, that was recent. I just think that it’s important to say it out loud to yourself sometimes.

Give yourself a hug, y’all.

I love you all so much. I love myself so much.

I love myself so much cause I’m awesome.

That’s some crazy validation.

I am awesome.

—EDIT—

Omds, this post made me laugh so much. I wrote this on May 21st 2025. I don’t know why I wrote it, or what came about it, but I mean, obviously, you can see what it’s about. I love that I saw this. Not like I needed to see it or anything, but knowing that at some point last year, I felt like this is so invigorating.

This year, I’m learning to level my self-trust with my self- respect. (I already wrote about this before.)

But more than that, trusting myself blindly and being willing to hold myself up if I land wrongly. I’m beginning to understand that people only live on this earth once. So everything they’ve gone through is their personal story, and I have to create mine.

I really do love myself, the good, the bad, and the ugly.

I hope that you also love yourself so much that even when you fall, you wouldn’t need other people to bring you back up. You’d trust yourself to handle things, no matter how fragile or gut-wrenching those things may seem.

That’s it for today. This is my favorite draft so far. I know why I didn’t post it then. It seemed superficial, like I was accusing other people of not loving themselves. And that I was too full of myself for saying that I loved myself. I don’t know why I thought that way. I’m happy I’m relearning some things. I’m learning to give myself space to be proud and happy with myself and to stop imagining rubbish voices in my head telling me otherwise.

Okay, that’s it, promise. See you in future updates.
