WORD.

[lowkie-high]

Before anybody else can love you, you have to love yourself. 

You’ve heard this many times before. But what does it mean to love yourself? And how do you actually love yourself?

‪Interrogate yourself. Figure out why specific thoughts make you feel a certain way. Ask yourself numerous questions and try to understand the root anxieties and wounds that are buried underneath your fears. In order to heal something we must first understand it.‬

This little girl was getting ignored by her mum.

So I was on the train and this little girl (about 5years old) was sitting across from me, her mother had her headphones in and was ignoring the little girl. The girl was rambling about random things and started playing i spy with no one. She then said “I spy with my little eye something that’s green” and I pointed at my shirt that was green. She smiled and said “I spy something that’s white” and I pointed to my white shoes, she then said the colour red and at first I couldn’t find anything red so I pulled out a red school book from my bag. This continued for a few turns and then she said brown, I looked around me and in my bag but couldn’t find anything, the girl still expecting me to find something brown started looking around too when the man two rows down pulled out a brown phone case and pointed to it. The young girl then said blue and another lady pointed to her bracelet, we all silently continued playing until the whole train carriage was playing along, the whole time her mother didn’t even realise.

Silver linings: I’ve finally stopped chasing perfection. Realisations like this happen slowly, then all at once. Slowly, over a long ass time, you stop reacting to bad situations with self hate & intense stress and anxiety. Slowly, you stop looking in the mirror and photos and pointing out endless flaws. Slowly, you stop expecting everybody to love and accept you. You stop seeing things as black and white, good or bad. You see that life happens contrary to the illusions and expectations you preconceived, and that’s not a bad thing. Then, slowly you accept THAT. You embrace spontaneity, because it teaches you things you never knew about yourself. Goddamn, if we unfolded into the perfect versions we wanted of ourselves so instantly, how on earth would we witness our brilliant transformations through horrible times, through unplanned events testing our strength, through meeting people who show us the best & worst in ourselves? I am no longer ever considering the mere concept of perfection in my life. It no longer exists in my mind. Or in my vocabulary. Kissing goodbye to the pain and anger that the idea of perfection caused me. Goodbye!
