And that's okay.
I think I'm funny
and pretty
and worth it.
People tend to associate confidence with a negative connotation.
But I disagree.
There is a big difference
between self-confidence and pride.
The trend recently seems to be
Self-loathing.
Hating yourself.
Wallowing in self pity.
Loss of self-worth.
Zero motivation to better yourself.
General dark thoughts of yourself and contemplation of suicide.
Really bad stuff, guys.
I think
(as usual)
The trend should be the opposite.
We should be loving ourselves,
Lifting each other up and smiling at the sky.
Before you can love anyone
Or let anyone love you,
You have to first learn to love yourself.
It's a hard thing, don't get me wrong.
It took me a long time.
It's hard to stay away from the downer trends.
It's hard to find the good things
About yourself
When so much is changing
That it's hard to keep up.
But it's possible.
And it's awesome once you realize just how awesome you are.
I love myself.
I like who I am;
Who I've become.
And you should like yourself too;
And who you choose to become.
