Self-love doesn't make us Selfish. 22-09-2022 We all are living our lives only for the sake of others like what they think about us and yeah it’s a matter of fact that we have to live for our parents and family too but in this hustle, in making others happy, we just forget to do something for ourselves. If someone is taunting us about our fashion sense, we become sad and try to avoid it later. And if someone dislikes our food choice we are like oh Really? Meanwhile, Some others do body shaming like "you are so skinny", do eat something, "you are so fat" Do gym, eat less These things are so common in this modern era. But The Question is. **Do people's opinions matter in our lives?** For me, I think no. You are perfect in your own way. No one has the right to impose their so-called shit choice on you. Try to ignore them and live every moment of your life to the fullest. Try to understand, "**Self-love is important too" and it doesn't make you feel selfish.** In this race of modernism, sometimes we neglect our own ourselves and in the end, we regret it. Avoid living your life for the sake of other people. Yes, you matter too. I believe that spreading happiness gives you good vibes and positive energy but how can one make others smile genuinely when he/she is not feeling fresh and healthy anymore? So you need to freshen your soul and mind too by taking short breaks from constantly doing efforts for others. Is not it? **Shorts Breaks are mandatory too, have you ever felt the same way...** Like, Sometimes all you need is to cancel your plans and lay in bed for hours, complete your overdue sleep just like a dead person, watch your favorite Netflix series or read your favorite book, do some cooking or eat some snacks without any distraction. It’s strange that when you want to see your loved ones happy, you don’t call them when you’re feeling down, only because it’ll make them sad and it’s an act of being very unkind to your selves. Because you matter too, you have the right to get all the care too. You tell your loved ones what’s bothering you and you can cry in the lap of your mother and talk to her, always remember when you are making every possible effort to make anyone feel comfortable then you deserve it too. On weekends, do a day out on the trip with your friends if you are tired of the same routine. Go to the beach side, do a barbecue, and spend some time with nature. Do some shopping, I mean the window shopping haha, just wander here and there to cherish the moments. Also, during your hectic routine don’t forget to keep yourself to stay away from healthy food because if I’d talk about myself, eating my favorite food inspires me a lot to perform my chores. And most important thing is to stay hydrated please and try to drink 12-15 glasses of fresh water daily. Positive words bring a positive attitude. So, if someone is feeling down so help them like You make others feel confident by telling them they look beautiful with their chubby cheeks, short hair, scar on their face, etc Because your thinking is beautiful. Concluding Thoughts:- You have a pure heart and you are the one busy spreading positive vibes all around you. Life is too short so instead of living in a cage try to come out of your comfort zone and live your life colorfully. Allah Almighty surely has a big reward for you in this world and hereafter too. If you don’t get appreciated for your efforts by others so, don't worry and don’t numb your spirit because Allah Almighty has chosen you to brighten up everyone’s day and He will never let your efforts be wasted. Indeed! Don't forget you all are beautiful and your existence matters too. Don't stress yourself if people don't find something good in you because only negative people think bad about others. Ignore them. There is a lot more to chase in the world rather than worrying about yourself coz of others' shit thoughts. The End... The lead image is taken from Unsplash and edited by me on Canva.

Yes my friend I agree. Others opinions are not matter. We have our own lives. We are unique in our own way. We shouldn't mind them because it will give us a chaotic mind. We should only focus the things that make us better.
Exactly, ignore others and live your life to the fullest.
Yes my friend that's the important. We shouldn't mind what others said.
I agree self love is important and we shouldn't let someone else's opinion stop us from doing it. For real let us be human and let us experience what makes us feel good about ourselves. Right on girl love this piece,!!
Hehe, that is exactly my point. Do things that make you happy instead of ruining your happiness for the sake of others. Thank you!!!
We are what we are regardless of what other people think or say about us. Thus we must have self love to protect ourselves from those toxic people who wants to pull us down. Stand firm and focus, its your battle to success not by their tongue.
Too Right. Stop giving attention to others' nonsense and do what you wanna do coz it's our life and we have the privilege to make it the happiest.
In this era the self-love is not the selfishness, it's necessary to keep ourselves alive, healthy and happy.
Yup, But most people forget it and start running their happiness coz of other people.
Agreed with your point of view sis, self love doesn't mean we are selfish and loving yourslef is necessary before loving anyone else, it will not only have a healthy impact on us but also saves us from toxic people
Exactly, you are on point. Self-love is necessary and it helps us in dwelling on a healthy lifestyle.
Self love is very important If you have that, no matter what other says, you will only listen to yourself and you were only believe to yourself too ❤️
Yeah, that's why self-love doesn't make us selfish it only makes us precious. Haha
We have to love ourselves more than any other person or object.
We shouldn't live according to what people say, especially when just shame on us, we always have the right to decide for ourselves and live for the Almighty God.
