Self Love and Knowing Your Worth

    In our generation, social media plays a big part.  There are always the celebrities and influencers who we want to be more like and compare ourselves to.  Not every post that someone who we might look up to posts is 100% real.  Pictures that are posted by these celebrities and influencers have most likely been edited many times until the picture has zero imperfections.  

    Hating on yourself and comparing your face, body, style, and life to someone else's is not nice to do to yourself.  Hating on yourself and your body, the only thing keeping you alive and well, is not healthy and can lead to some major issues like depression and eating disorders.  Wishing to be like somebody else isn't the most positive thing.  Everyone is different for a reason and you should appreciate yourself.  Self-love and knowing your worth is important for a healthy lifestyle.  Being confident in yourself is such a good feeling because if you don't care about what other people think, there isn't anyone to disappoint and you can't really go wrong with being yourself.  Wanting to be like someone else or trying to live up to some expectation isn't respecting yourself.  

    You should take the time out of every day to do a little something for you, something that makes you happy.  Give the same love, care, and attention as you give to others and you'll be so much happier.  Especially during a pandemic, it is the perfect time to gain some self-love, self-respect, and confidence in yourself.
