Self love yo, it's important.
It's a hard thing, learning to love yourself and all your little quirks, the nuts and bolts of what made you, YOU. What's even harder? Discovering that after all this time, you may not have been loving yourself.
You see, I thought I loved myself. Like imagine me as a hippy promoting self love "self love maaan" throwing out a peace sign. That was me, or is currently me. You decide.
I knew I was an oddball, and I was always 100% okay with that. Weird is weird, and there ain't nothing you can do about it. I also didn't really wear makeup, not because I was against it, I just admired sleep more.
I don't know what happened, it's like I became more of an adult this year ;) but I was noticing all my faults. Acne that just won't go away (it's called not taking care of your skin, which, you should NOT follow my example), having even slightly bushy eyebrows, in general just having an asymmetrical face. Why am I only noticing all this now? And more importantly, why do I care? These are all things that make me, me. Obviously, I'm not perfect, so why strive to be something that I'm not, because there are just some things you can't change, and you know what? That's a-okay.
So today I'm gonna become the hippy you and I never knew you wanted. Love yourself, accept the fact that you're different, give yourself a big ole hug around those curves that your mamma gave you. And if you don't have curves? Well consider yourself lucky that you can run without that upper chest pain. And most importantly, it is your beautiful personality that will shine through and that is what people will notice about you and care about, not how short you are and if you have cellulite or not.
So, instead of hating bits and pieces or yourself, and make a flower chain, throw out all the peace signs and just have an all around beautiful time being the undeniably beautiful human that you are.
*whilst I'm for hippies and love, I am not promoting drug use* SO DON'T DO IT.
I hope you felt the love,
Mercedes
