Self love

How do you go about loving someone else if you’re not sure that you love your self?

It’s easy to say “oh of course I love myself” but then I get in front of the mirror and pick myself apart. Every little mark, every scar, every wrinkle, every bit of flabby skin.

I am learning to love myself again. Especially in this new body. I’ve come a long way from where I was a year ago. Sitting in a hospital bed, unable to move because I lost all my muscle, and covered in tubes and wires.

It’s insane to me that as a woman I can sit here and criticize my body so badly even after seeing everything that my body has done for me and what it’s been through.

This is short and sweet today. Find one thing about you that you absolutely love and hold onto it. Be gentle with yourself. You are stronger than you know.
