ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh you guys have me in freakin tears!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's it!!! I won't allow you guys to say one more bad thing about yourselves!!!! You must try to speak to your inner self with love and compassion. Come on girls if you dodn't love yourselves first who will? And even if they did you wouldn't believe them! First of all STOP comparing yourself to other people, we are all different. The next time you catch yourself bad mouthing yourself I want you to stop ask yourself would I speak to anyone else that way if I knew how sad and gross they felt?? Well... would you? If I came to you saying how fat and ugly I felt, you would all be the first to tell me that I'm
you would say how beautiful I was even if I weighed 200 pounds!!!! You know you would!!! So why are you sooooooooooo hard on yourselves!!!! You are all soooo beautiful you just have to start telling yourself that!!! I mean it!!!! I used to do the same thing, looked at myself in complete loathing. Not anymore!!!!!! I see myself as beautiful,kind,fun
healed from all the hurt and pain inflicted upon me be the people who "loved" me. Why should I or you take over where those other people left off???? We must force ourselves to look in the mirror and realize how beautiful and special we are. We are all a one of a kind!!!! Start small, find one thing you love about yourself and consentrate on that. For me, I started with my eyes. Slowly but surely I worked my way into loving all of me. It took alot of hard work and tears and praying to god but I did!!!! And now I can look in the mirror and smile and think to myself...YOU ARE SOOO AWESOME!!! Look at how far you've come!!!!! I have a picture of myself of when I was 5. I look at that picture and think how could I say bad things about that cute kid? The poor thing just wants some love. So I decided to love her(me) and it was the best thing I ever did!! Of course I sometimes catch myself saying ohhhhh I wish my thighs were not so cottage cheesy and c r a p like that, but I never put myself down ever, never again!!! I just laugh and say oh well...I can either do more squats and put the ice cream away or stop pissing and moaning about it!
Anyway the point of this exercise was to bring awareness to all of you on how you speak to yourselves when no one else but you is listening.
You will soon realize how much of an effect all the chatter in your head has on your self esteem. I really want you to put an effort into saying kinder things to yourself and watch how your attitude changes towards yourself!!! It may me hard in the beginning, but like said start small and in time you WILL BEGIN TO UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M TELLING YOU!! I hate to see such beautiful, caring people talk bad about themselves it really hurts. So stop it!!!
good luck hugs and kisses
