I have an eye for me. I love myself. I love my curves, my laugh, my annoyance towards others, my quirks, my smile, my eyes, my hair, my style, my obsession with the art of food, my life. I wouldn’t change anything in the world. I am what I am and I love me.
I wish more people in this world would love themselves more. You are your biggest fan why not show some spirit. We are given the tools to succeed in this world. We are given the necessities to prove we got what it takes to conquer our goals, and there is only one person you need to prove that too. Guess who?
I only speak so “selfishly” because my life is a little complicated in means of self worth. I have experienced self-doubt in my own personal life. Not with myself but with my parents. I think it is important to talk about it because without expressing how you feel the truth will eat you up inside and maybe, just maybe speaking about my difficult pain it will help someone else out there to comfort their own situation. With my parents cruel actions it has shown me that no matter what it could be worse. That no matter how hard the obstacle that you must face in life you will make it cross the finish line.
I wish more people in this world loved themselves. I wish my parents loved themselves more. I always think because of what they did it means they don’t love my brother and I enough. I know my mother loves us and cares for us, but I wish she loved herself more. By loving herself more she could love us more. On terms of my father, he was lost years ago and can not be rescued. For that I am sad that I do not have my “father” in my life, but I have always had a father figure that has shown me what love really is.
It is sad in the past weeks the suicide rate has increased because of bullying and depression. The first person I think of when hearing of a death because of suicide is not the person who took their life but the person that loved them. May it be a mother, a sister, a brother, a daughter, a son, a teacher, a friend, a wife, a husband, even a co-worker. They are the ones that are in reality of the deceased, that are left behind to continue loving them because that’s all they know what to do.
Killing yourself does not solve the problem. Taking your own life does not help. Talking about your pain and your suffering solves the equation. Letting someone in can open the door to your future.
Listen to me or not, but this is coming from a person who watched both people she loves more in this entire world try to run away from life. Look for help, look for life, look for love.
