Being happy with yourself is one of life’s challenges. You have to learn how to love yourself, all of you. That includes looks, attitude, clothes selection, all of it. Being at peace is such a wonderful concept. It’s the idea that you only allow positivity in your life. It’s a step I believe everyone has to work towards. I always talk about loving yourself the most in my blogs. I don’t want to make it sound like I’m “perfect” or that I’m always at peace with myself. It’s a battle for all of us, I’m just making it easier on myself. I’ve removed people from my life that I didn’t necessarily want to remove, because I decided that I needed to love myself more. I get upset like everyone else, I just curve my energy in a positive manner (I clean and I mean like I clean the whole house). I’ve been able to also use my blog as an outlet to get all of my emotions out. Everyone needs to have a way to express themselves and get over life’s difficulties, for me I just cry, clean, or blog. Or all three depending on the occasion. Releasing is an important part of being happy with yourself. You have to learn that you will make mistakes. I’m still trying to learn that it is not the end of the world if I don’t get an A in a class (one of my best friends always tells me “Mayah see it’s not a competition”). You need to forgive yourself just as you forgive everyone else. When I say love yourself the most, I mean that you need to love you more than anyone else. You are the most important person in your life. Take care of yourself, treat yourself the way you want to be treated. I saw a post on weheartit yesterday and it was talking about being the friend you want to have, making a list of qualities you want in a friend, and becoming that person. That’s my goal, along with being at peace with myself. Connect with yourself, get to really know yourself. I probably sound crazy but there’s things about me that I haven’t discovered yet, so I know the same goes for you. Just decide that you always have room for improvement, and that you will improve, but for the time being you are the perfect version of yourself. Technically you’re the best version of yourself (yet). Keep in mind that everything is order and that you need to love you before anyone else loves you. Love yourself.
