Do you really love yourself???

Loving yourself can mean a lot of different things to a lot of different people. It could mean being happy with what u look like. Having to be ok with the past and what you have done. Trying to find peace of mind with the people and world around you. For most people its all of these things and even more.

I know what you mean, But how your looks come out really depends on you being in your element. Ever notice when you are with your close friends having a great time, and someone takes a picture you generally look your best? I think what you are feeling inside really shows on your face for better or worse. If you are feeling dull inside you tend to have less of those smirks and smiles/facial complexes that bring out the life in you. Atleast that's my take on it lol

God gave me a very hefty ego. So, to temperate, he gave me a few physical flaws. Lol. He also gave me a hefty dose of procrastination which means I take forever to work on said flaws. All of this ends up to be the wonderful being that is ME! Thank you God....

And that is so true! That's why i hate looking at myself at the mirror, scared of the flaws that i might see! Kidding aside, when insecurity gets to me i just tell myself that nobody is like me and i'm created uniquely. And i am loved by people around me for being me and not being somebody else.

That's right! Although we get really insecure every now and then, it feels good to be reminded of the good things in ourselves and not our flaws. Actually, I admire your light skin, I want my skin to be lighter too. Just focus in our assets!

Yes I do love myself and what I see in the mirror has nothing to do with who I am. And yes I do find myself more important as anyone else. It's me I have to live with forever. If you want to change the world you have to start (invest) in yourself first.

You are correct that we see ourselves in the mirror sometimes,yet I just say to my own self that I have so many impurities to my features.Even if I am not a perfect person in physical aspects I still admire my own image especially when I am grooming to have a walk with my friends.I can not stop comparing to anybody with a much more superior physique than myself yet I still love my own image because I have nothing else to do but only comparing.They are not the one who feeds my family but my own perseverance to work hard to achieve my goals in life but my own self only.Physical attraction is only there to see and admire yet the true quality of admiration is your ability to bring all the goodness of your earnings that can be shared by all that you love.

Indeed, very few people like yourself.This is very important to find inner peace.I personally try not to criticize too.If someone does not love themselves difficult to achieve success in life.Many people do not realize that destroy themselves from criticism.Many books have been written on this topic.

It is true that we cannot avoid seeing our flaws and wishing to be perfect both inside and out. But like you said we can somehow improve ourselves to become better. The important thing is we recognize those flaws and accepted what we can, and we cant change in ourselves. If we could do that we will be able to learn to accept ourselves for who we are and love follows.

Some timme it happens. And all of us grow by adopting our favorite actor/actress life style. One thing I want to say that just believe on yourself and don't give time to negative feelings if they came in your mind. Always feel proud and love yourself.

I think that we are too hard on ourselves when it comes to our physical appearance. It is important to be happy with yourself, but we set our standards way too high. Don't get me wrong, I think is you are not happy with certain things, that there is no reason why we shouldn't make some changes. Don't like your hair, then color it. Unhappy with your weight, then diet and exercise. But I do think that some people take it to the extreme. These people will never be happy with themselves and have a long unhappy life. You have to work with what God gave you.

Hello toxic_lifestyle, I agree with what you have said here. While I am confident that I love myself, there are still moments when I feel as if I am the ugliest and the most worthless person ever to set foot on earth. It is hard to conquer this down feeling at times but since I understand that it is just normal to feel this way at times, i make it a point to remind myself that I am unique and that I have something that only I can offer to the world. Nothing is perfect in this world so we must not focus on our flaws and other things that we are lacking. Rather we should focus on the bright side of every situation especially of our personality, because only then that the true love for ourselves will shine.
