Self- Love

-
There are currently about 8 billion people living on Earth and every single one of these people deserve love. Whether it's the love of a friend, a parent, a pet or anyone else, that warm snuggly feeling of being adored. 
But then the reality of life comes along. And this is when we start wondering if we even matter. We often ask ourselves if anyone cares about us. This leads us to the sad thought that no one cares about us and we try to change ourselves to feel cherished. We try to change our 'flaws' to appear 'perfect' and 'ideal' so that we can be surrounded by friends and people who think that we are delightful. 
Well, these people like your fake personality. They don't care about your real self. You may be thinking that this is a little cost to pay but imagine the real danger of this situation. You have successfully surrounded yourself by people who do not love the real you. Imagine a day where your real self is revealed. All of these people will turn their backs on you. You will become lonelier than ever. Just because you couldn't show your true self. 
If we were not supposed to have character flaws, then they would not exist. And stop seeing your flaws as something that is severely wrong. Don't change yourself. Instead work on those flaws to improve yourself and your overall character.
There is no need to fake your personality. This will surround you by fake people. Ut would be much smarter to surround yourself by 1 real friend who loves you for you rather than surrounding yourself with a billion fake friends who don't even like the real you. Appreciate yourself and instead of looking at your shortcomings, focus on the qualities that make you beautiful. You don't need to focus on or try to be like 'other people' who 'embody perfection' and apparently have no flaws. Just because they seem perfect in your eyes doesn't mean that they actually are. 
So just love yourself the way you are. Remind yourself that you are lovely and charming. Ignite the fire of self love in yourself and just watch as you start to feel more confident and happy as the days go by.

Don't Give Up!

Feeling overwhelmed is a feeling we may feel constantly in life. As we grow older, our responsibilities increase drastically. And we can't always cope up with that, which may not always feel acceptable to us because of our inner mind telling us that we aren't doing enough. So, we keep pushing ourselves to go further. This tiny endless cycle keeps on going until we can't find the motivation to push ourselves anymore. Then what do we do? Getting more overwhelmed is something that happens to us unconsciously in these types of situations. But that's not the right approach to problems like these.  Instead, look outside your window and remind yourself of something that you are thankful for in your life. It doesn't need to be anything big and robust. Even if it's a small detail, it doesn't matter as long as you are satisfied. Remember and immerse yourself in that detail. And for a while, you may find yourself feeling happier, energetic, less overwhelmed and most of...

True Self Over Societal Expectations

-

Society is the world's biggest and most feared judge. Everyone wants to be loved by other people and feel like they belong in this world. But society's absurd 'rules and regulations' have their dreams crushed. The public has created their own ideal 'perfect person with a perfect personality' that every one strives to be, so that they can feel wanted and accepted. But in the midst of trying to be that perfect person, we lose ourselves. We lose our true personality that used to define us.  Maybe we might not be society's favourite. But the truth is that nobody is society's favourite. So instead, we should try to be our favourite. Be your own favourite person. Don't run after acceptance and that perfect persona, charm and looks. It may see like the best option to feel accepted, but it's actually one of the worst options in disguise. Because doing all of this, is never worth losing your true self. Trying to please the public is just one of the defini...
