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.
