What if, and hear me out, people DO love you

Your coworker who loves when they get to work a shift with you, even if you don’t talk

Your cousin who’s relieved when they see you at family gatherings, who thinks you’re “the cool cousin” but hasn’t said anything out loud

Your classmate who thinks you have great taste, even if they’re too shy to speak up about it in class

Your childhood friends who remember you fondly

The waiter you tipped during a busy night

That person you complimented on the street

The little kid you waved to

The old woman you made small talk with

People love you, because you’re lovable. And you’re worthy of love. Even if it doesn’t feel like it sometimes

(Self depreciating comments will be removed at best, bluntly and remorselessly told to shut the fuck up at worst. Fuck around. I dare you.)

Your body is a temple. Love and cherish it. Feed it the best food, hydrate it, move it, clean it. This is a reminder to think positively about your body. Drink some water, take your meds and vitamins, go for a walk, take a shower or bath. Don’t forget to take care of yourself loves! 💛🌻✨

You can love your body while working on becoming your best self.
