How to Appreciate Yourself : #LoveYourselfFirst

Howdy good people!

Now, I'm gonna share some ways when I deal with appreciating my very own self. These are what I do to show that I love, and respect my very own self. Because, for me, myself is my best friend as well as my worst enemy. I will be the enemy of myself by letting my fears, anxiety and negative thoughts filling up my head. Therefore, I tend to do these things mentioned below to show that I love my own self, that I have rights to respect myself for going through every single step of my life.

Don't let other people's (negative) saying defines you
I don't think I can explain this so well. But still, I guess you already have the grip of this point. So, most of the times I tell myself that I shouldn't really care about what other people say about me. You have to believe that you're worth it and the moment when you believe in yourself, you will see that other people will treat you with more respect. However, it should be noted that it doesn't mean we shouldn't see from other people's perspective about us. As long as those sayings are positive and can bring to the better you, then it doesn't matter.

Treating yourself right (rewarding)
This is what I usually do when (I think) I have done such a good job; I treat myself. I give rewards to myself such as eating good food, reading good book, going to places I wanna go to, buying something that I want and so forth. This is the way I keep myself motivated to do things (that I should do :v)



Be healthy be happy!
Isn't it obvious that taking a good care of our health means that we love and/or respect ourselves? Well, so what I do is go for jogging regularly. Well, it's been a while actually since I jog; it's rainy season now here in Jogja so that I often postpone it (excuse -_-)

Be beautiful for yourself: e.g. wearing a dress that make you happy
Because for me, to be beautiful means I appreciate myself and give what myself deserves, and it also means to be myself. So I wear comfortable nice good dress that make me happy (sounds silly?) and (sometimes) do make up. Not for others to see, but for me myself. If others will look at me, well, let's just say at least I make it worth their while, lol.

Having quality me-time
I remember a friend of mine said that we can choose our happiness each day. And that is true. I admit that sometimes I wanna be alone all by myself and just enjoy anything I do without the presence of others. Sometimes. And having a me-time is not bad.

So, don't forget to love yourself first, and everything else will fall into places.
I'm still learning to do so, though.

xoxo

Falling in Love with Strangers

Just another random flying issue on my mind. I was singing one of my fav song, and it contains "Falling in Love with Strangers". Then suddenly I wonder how it feels. Have you ever felt so? In a sudden I think of meeting someone new and feel a kinda strange feeling warming up my body just like every time I met you. Well, that kinda feeling. I think it must be good to easily falling in love with someone you meet at the first sight. Just if I can do it. It wouldn't be so hurting and taking time to forget you, then, I guess. Have you got my point so far? I juts think, maybe , it might be either yes or no, maybe it ll be helpful to easily falling in love with someone else once your heart gets broken. If it's possible, then this broken heart can be recover soon right? Well, once more, it can be yes or no. Missing you was blue , That's what I feel and I have to find a way soon to turn that blue into red, before it's too late and my heart gets frozen sin...

Home is not a home without a Mother

I read it somewhere on the internet; a home is not a home without a mother. I don't know why, lately I miss her just so much. Surely I miss her and remember her a lot, but it feels different these past few days; it hurts me missing her so badly. I don't know to whom should I tell this, guess my sister won't listen to me anymore if I keep telling her that I miss you, mom ._. Ehe By the way, it's okay. I'm fine. Not totally fine, but I am fine. So then I remember watching a TV show when the guest said something about losing a mother. As what I remembered, she said that there are "first without mom" things that we will have to do as our moms passed away. Then, I rethink about it. Dear my always lovely Mae , I remembered coming home for the first time after you passed away, mom. It felt totally empty. You know, I used to seeing you welcoming me home; then it all felt so much different when I come home now and no one is there welcoming me. At first, I...
