alright, i know that i'm the last person you guys would expect to hear a "self-help" lecture from, but honestly, i only b***h because i feel i have a lack of attention. this i am writing for all of the people who AREN'T like me. this i'm writing for people who complain about their lives, not for attention because they're mommies and daddies aren't proud of them, but for the people who actually don't even love themselves! for those who are ever uncomfortable. and i know this prolly doesn't belong in a journal entry, but it belongs in a place that people read, and this was the first place i could think of (plus i get gold. haha) so here it goes.
ok, so i was talking to this chick on another site and she was telling me about how she so badly wanted a relationship. god, have i ever told you guys how much i hate hearing about that kinda stuff? teenage love is overrated. anyways, so she told me about how she wanted a relationship because she wanted to feel real love. but here's the deal.
real love is not the love that television advertises and hallmark sells. love is the feeling we have when we're around friends. even if you're family life is shitty or nonexistant, you still have friends. but still, a lot of people aren't satisfied with that. they're far from lonely but still sad. those are the people who need to learn to love themselves.
so many people stand in front of a mirror and only want to break it. so many people hear themselves talk and think that no one cares or wants to listen. well screw all those people who deny you're beauty or words. the only who you ever have to please, in the real world, is yourself! you don't have to cake your face with make-up to be pretty. you don't have to repeat what you've heard on tv to be right. all that matters is what you think and if people don't like it, screw them! in the end, there will be at least a handful of people who agree with you, and there will be even more that love you. no one should ever be able to get so far under your skin to make you no longer love yourself, but if you can't love yourself to start with, you need to start learning how. it's not a hard lesson to learn. embrace your flaws, because they're part of you just as much as the beauty. love your beauty, because you have it, even if no one tells you you do.
ok, i'm done. i know that this was prolly the nicest lecture i'll ever give about teaching people to love themselves, but face it, it's not hard. i just cant believe that people can actually sit around and b***h about themselves! when i think about how i used to do it, i'm surprised, cuz i love myself a whole lot and i can't imagine having that kinda low self-esteem again.
thanks for reading! love ya. repeat this (paraphrase i mean) to anyone you know who needs to hear it, because honestly, emos are totally overrated! haha
