dear you,

it’s Wednesday, and 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?

dear you,

it’s Wednesday! you’ve made it half way through the week, congratulations. close your eyes, take a deep breath, and take a moment to reflect on anything and everything positive that happened this week. try to find something lovely (or at least tolerable) about the week so far. even if the only thing that has been good is a tiny, insignificant thing, take a moment to remember and appreciate that one little thing.

now turn your thoughts to yourself. no matter what has happened this week, take this moment to let it all wash away, and remind yourself how wonderful you are. there is something unique, beautiful, and incredible about each and every one of you. take this moment to find it, and remember it.

keep thinking, keeping your eyes closed and taking deep breaths if that helps you, and reflect on yourself until you find one thing that you love about yourself. one thing that makes you amazing, special, unique, and beautiful. 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
