I think you’re…

dear you,

happy Saturday!

is there anything nicer than getting a nice message in your inbox?  sometimes the message comes at exactly the right moment to brighten your day, or sometimes it’s just enough to get you through a rough patch, or simply makes you smile. 

as it’s Saturday again, go send someone a message in their ask box, starting with “I think you’re…” and completing the sentence with something positive about them, or their blog.  :)

so go ahead, make someone’s day.

love, me

PS, I think you’re amazing. <3

dear you,

happy Wednesday! no matter how your week has gone, take a moment today to try and let it all fall away. it’s unfortunate that our society tends to focus on the negative. instead of telling ourselves what we like, we spend much more time beating ourselves up over our flaws, or counting the things we want to change about ourselves.

so today, take a good long look at yourself, and find one thing that you love. or even something that you kind of like. one thing that makes you beautiful and special and unique. I guarantee there’s at least one thing in every single person. once you find that one thing, write it down. write it here, write it on your blog, write it on your bathroom mirror, write it on a piece or paper and put it by your bedside. but wherever you choose to write it, make sure you write it down. it will be harder to forget if you write it. so find one thing you love about yourself, then write it, remember it, treasure it, believe it.

love, me

what do you love about yourself?

how much time out of your day will it take to find one person, and say one nice thing to them?  you never know, you might save a life, be the spark of light in a dark tunnel, dry a tear, or create a smile. 

so go ahead, make someone’s day.

love, me

PS, I think you’re beautiful, wonderful, and worthy of loving yourself.

dear you,

happy Wednesday!

today, take a minute to remind yourself how wonderful you are. you have so many unique, amazing, beautiful things about you. it’s easy to forget those things, especially if other people try to convince you otherwise, so take a minute to remember.

think of one thing you love about yourself. one thing that’s amazing, one thing that’s beautiful, one thing that you’re proud of, one thing you wouldn’t change for the world. or if that’s too hard right now, think of one thing that you kind of like. one thing that’s alright, one thing you think isn’t so bad.

write it down. write it here, write it on your blog, write it on your bathroom mirror, write it on a notebook by your bedstand. but write it down somewhere. write it, remember it, treasure it, believe it.

love, me

PS, what do you love about yourself?

dear you,

happy Saturday! try to think of the nicest thing someone said to you all week, and how it made you feel. who doesn’t love a kind word?

so take today to go and find someone on tumblr (or in real life if you’re feeling ambitious), and find something you love about them or their blog, and tell them how amazing they are. send them a message starting with “I think you’re…” and completing the sentence with that something amazing about them.

you never know, you could save a life, dry a tear, spark a smile, or make a new friend. so go ahead, make someone’s day.

love, me

PS, I think you’re beautiful.

dear you,

happy Saturday! I hope your weekend is going to be nice and relaxing (or fun and exciting, whichever you prefer!) now, before you go off and relax or have fun, take a minute to do something nice for someone else: go send someone a message in their ask box, starting with “I think you’re…” and completing the sentence with something positive about them, or their blog.

it’s always nice to get nice messages, isn’t it? you never know, you could you might save a life, be the spark of light in a dark tunnel, dry a tear, or make someone smile.

so go ahead, make someone’s day.

love, me

PS, I think you’re so much more incredible than you give yourself credit for.

dear you,

happy Wednesday!  I certainly hope your day was better than mine.

I had jury duty, so I went to the court house, sat around until my panel was called, went through the selection questions, didn’t get picked (“does anyone have a legitimate, compelling reason why they won’t be available for the duration of this trial?” “um…I have midterms starting tomorrow, two of which I CANNOT make up for any reason, including being on my death bed or in jury duty—I asked my teachers—and one of those midterms is worth 30% of my grade, so if I miss it I’ll automatically get a C in the class.”) and then had to sit around all afternoon waiting to see if I’d be needed.  Wasn’t needed for anything, so I ended up doing homework and studying the rest of the time, then got my “you served on jury duty, yay you” payment, and went across the street to the law firm I’ve started working at as a law clerk, and bates stamped (essentially: page numbered) documents for two hours.

yes, it was an absolutely thrilling day. how was yours?

anyway. as today is Wednesday, take a moment to reflect on yourself, and think about something that you love about yourself. something that makes you YOU. write it down. write it here, or on your blog, or on a piece of paper on your bed-stand, or on your mirror. write it, remember it, treasure it, believe it.

love, me

Anonymous asked: I just recently got help for self harm and anorexia, and so now, everyone thinks I'm getting better and that all the therapy and support is helping me, but really I'm just getting worse. I feel like I'm about to break from all this pressure and that I will never, ever truly be happy. I want to get better but at the same time I cant stop. I act like I'm okay and that my moods are changing and I'm getting out of this funk, but I'm not.

dear you,

first thing: breathe. just take a minute to breathe, and remind yourself that it’s okay to not be okay. I know it’s hard, and it might seem like nothing will ever get better, but I believe that everyone can get better. things won’t always be so dark, there is a light at the end of the tunnel.  it’s okay to tell people that you don’t think you’re getting better, it might help relieve some of the pressure. getting help is such a hard, brave step, I’m so proud of you for even taking that step. <3

tell your therapist what you told me. maybe your treatment isn’t exactly what you need, and he or she can help adjust it so that it will help you better.  I know that getting help can be scary—terrifying, even. but it’s so, so brave of you to be getting help. now you just have to trust the people who love you and care about you enough to tell them that you aren’t feeling like you’re getting better yet. it’s okay to need more time to get better.

and remember: you are beautiful, strong, and you can do this. I’m here for you, I love you, and I believe in you. <3

love, me
