Valentine's day is just a few days away. Some people will be excited for this special day; others have been dreading it for months. Wether you have a Valentine or not, I have a job for you: this Friday, February 14, love yourself.
It seems like loving yourself can be hard anymore. I know too many people who are way too insecure about things that aren't that big of a deal. I see too many people saying that they are dumb and ugly. Everyone has at least one thing that makes them beautiful.
I challenge you to look at yourself as the amazing person you are. You are smart. You are beautiful, no matter what anyone says. There are people who want to be you. They want to have your life. The fact that you are reading this means that you have internet, so you are luckier than others. Some don't even have a life as great and wonderful as yours. Embrace it while you can.
Loving yourself also means accepting that everyone is unique. I used to worry about what people thought about me. But in the end, it doesn't matter at all. When we don't accept our unique personality and try to be just like everyone else, we miss out on that opportunity that "wasn't cool" for you to do.
"Why are you trying so hard to fit in when you were born to stand out?"
- Ian Wallace
I challenge you to try this not only on Valentine's day, but every other day in the year. It really makes a difference in your life.
In honor of Valentine's day, I will be posting not one, but two entries this week! Be expecting an extra special post this Friday!
xoxo, hershey
