This year I decided to truly love myself, I have never been able to see myself much or like what the people around me see in me or me as. If you know me compliments are hard, I love them but receiving them as truth is so so hard. Yesterday a friend of mine posted on Facebook about learning to love yourself and seeing yourself as God sees you and going through a journey of doing that giving yourself self-love and areas that you don't see yourself. And it had a thing where you posted a picture that someone took of you and where you felt beautiful or any pictures of you where you felt beautiful. I came across a whole year's worth of pictures well selfies that I took that I thought I had deleted off of my phone but they went to my Google pictures instead. (I completely deleting a lot of them) This is not a share pictures of you where you feel beautiful and tag someone type of post this is more of a post reminding myself that I am growing or learning to love myself and it will take time and practice reminding myself this. So I only choose one picture of me. No makeup, (rarely wear it anymore these days) no filter to make the picture look better. And no glasses so I can see what my eyes look like. What I love about this picture is my smile. I used to tell myself as a child that my smile was going to be the thing that drew people to me. If I would grow to be ugly I wanted my smile to be what made me feel beautiful. I didn't grow up ugly 😂 but God gave me my smile and now that it's not crooked it's my favorite thing about me. Okay I'm done.
