I love this! We will buy up all the billboards in America and put this post on them. We don’t really look at ourselves, it’s hard to look at ourselves and all we see are our flaws, it takes work to look at ourselves and like the person that stares back, even harder to love that person. I myself like who I have become, I didn’t like who I was when I was younger, but when I look in the mirror now I may see physical flaws, but I don’t hate them any more, I think they give me character, I’ve got something about me that is completely unique. Aside from when I’m arguing with other people in my own head, I like my thoughts, I love being alone with myself, even though I love being with my friends, I love being alone too. It’s not a burden anymore, I used to hate the person I was, And that was hard, I had to keep beating myself up over every perceived misstep or misspoken word, just so I wouldn’t feel good about myself, at the time I was stuck in a very unhappy cycle, now I can’t even remember what snapped me out of it. I do know that I’m really glad I took the first step to liking myself, it changed my life, I don’t have to be that insecure girl who pretends to be something she’s not. Now I’m the girl who doesn’t need to pretend. :-) and I am loving every minute of it.
