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 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.

dear you,

happy Wednesday! I hope this Wednesday finds you happy and healthy. <3 from what I’ve been hearing, there’s a lot of hate that’s been going around recently, and I know it can be hard to shake off hurtful things that people say, so today, really take a minute to remind yourself that those things aren’t true. you are beautiful, wonderful, unique, and special.  but it’s one thing for me to say that, and another thing for you to say it to yourself. so take today to look at yourself and find one thing that you love about yourself. write it down somewhere, and remember that thing when people try to put you down.  you are beautiful. write it, remember it, treasure it, believe it.

love, me

PS, while you’re remembering what you love about yourself, take another moment to remember happy things.   this lovely blog is a place for people to write down what makes them happy, so I encourage you to go submit something that makes you happy.  it’s nice to remember happy things, isn’t it?

what do you love about yourself?

dear you,

happy Wednesday! any of you who are on the quarter system like me started school up again this week.  I don’t know about you, but I anticipate being in for a really long, busy, hard quarter.  it’s easy to get bogged down with stress and schoolwork, so try to always remember that your grades don’t define you. you define you. and you are beautiful.

but it’s easy for me to tell you that you’re beautiful, it’s harder to tell yourself the same thing, I know. so today, take a minute to remind yourself how beautiful you are.  find one thing about yourself that you love. or even something that you like a little.  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

PS, what do you <3 about yourself?

dear you,

happy Saturday! right now, 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.

sometimes a kind message like that 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. 

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 a beautiful, unique snowflake. <3

dear you,

happy Saturday! 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. it won’t take long, and it definitely won’t halt your day. so why not?

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 incredible and inspiring, even if you don’t see that yet. <3

dear you,

happy Wednesday!  what’s your favorite thing about yourself? what’s that one thing about yourself that you really just love, because it makes all your flaws seem to disappear when someone compliments it? can’t think of something? what? you don’t have something like that, you say? well, I respectfully say that you’re wrong. you do have something like that, because each and every one of you has something incredible, unique, amazing, special, and utterly beautiful about you.

so today, find at least one thing you love about yourself—or even something that you like a little.  it doesn’t have to be a big thing, but find something about yourself that you love, that you’re proud of. 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
