The Memoir Of Ms. Butterfly

Dear self you’re so good at giving everyone advice, but I don’t understand why it isn’t easy to take your advice.

 You know how to uplift the world with all your positive thinking positive words, but who is there to inspire you when you need uplifting no one because you make it seem like you have all together on the outside but, you know, on the inside, you live in a hot mess.

Don’t be afraid to show yourself the same tough love that you give to everyone that comes to you with the need of Tough love. But, if you’re going to be a preacher about self-love and tough -love, you have to be able to do it for yourself.

 Figure out why you cannot love yourself the way you show the world that you love yourself; what is it about yourself that you believe you’re not worthy of love yourself. Of course, you are worthy of loving yourself, but you have to figure that out for yourself; no one can tell you or show you how to love you as well it’s a process that you have to figure out for yourself and do for yourself.

 I guess it’s true what they say I deafly have to fake it before I can make it, so I still have to show that I’m strong and that I love myself until I finally get to the point where I can honestly be honest with myself and say that I love myself.

Loving myself is letting go of all the negativity that holds me back from loving myself honestly the way I deserve to be loved and understanding that I can’t find true love in anyone else but myself.
