A love letter to myself
I have always loved 110% with whatever partner I had to the point I would lose myself. I however would never love the one person I needed to; myself. I always judged myself harshly, and never would acknowledge any good things about me. This last year has been an experience I would not wish on my worst enemy, and by going through this I have been isolated from the opportunity to delve into negative habits that would cause me to lose myself more. Thanks to this I have been able to take time to start discovering who I am as a person again. As I’ve gone through this process, I have begun to notice the little things about my personality that I had buried to match the people I meant to please. I found my sense of humor, I was able to start practicing my old hobbies I held so dear to me. I got to start practicing makeup again, singing, drawing, and painting. I was able to discover new things I loved like bowling and scuba diving. I slowly noticed the light that had been dimmed in my face and eyes was starting to glow brighter with each passing day. I didn’t despise waking up every morning, and hating myself any time I looked in the mirror. I am learning on this journey how to truly fall in love with myself, and while I take the time to do that, I look forward to finding someone that will love all the little things about me that I’m re-learning to love myself.
