I don't know who needs to hear this, but: Life is about much more than just finding someone who wants you or being unhappy about someone who doesn't want you. There is a lot of valuable time to be spent discovering yourself and not expecting someone to fall in love with you along the way. It doesn’t necessarily have to be painful or empty. You need self-love. Becoming a whole being yourself. Undertake on adventures, spend time with your friends walking in the woods, take a walk around the city at night, spend time with yourself on solo dates, doodle on stalls, write your thoughts in books found at the library, take pride in your appearance, be generous to others, and always smile. You should do all things with love but stop romanticizing life as if you cannot do without it. Live for yourself and be happy alone, without dependency on anyone to make you happy. Be self-dependent. It isn't less beautiful. When you focus on your own life, goals and dreams, you will be more likely to reach them and be content. You will also be more likely to build meaningful and lasting relationships with others, as you will have a strong sense of security and independence.
Self-dependence is the best way to achieve true happiness and fulfillment. By focusing on yourself and your own interests, you can develop a strong sense of identity and purpose. When you don't rely on anyone else to make you happy, you become more confident and independent. This allows you to create meaningful connections and experiences on your own terms. The freedom to pursue your dreams and ambitions without feeling limited by others' expectations or opinions lets you breathe more. It also allows you to be more present in the moment, as you're not worrying about whether someone else is happy or not. Living for yourself also brings peace and stability, as you know that whatever happens, you have yourself to rely on.
The feeling of achieving everything on your own and everything you wish for cannot beat any other feeling in this world. Confidence boost, self-worth, growth, exposure, independence, and taking the right decisions for yourself. These are the key steps in life that you have to accomplish and it is vital to be independent and to know the do's and don'ts of your life. Having the autonomy to make your own decisions and the knowledge to know what is best for you can help you build strong self-efficacy. A better understanding of your capabilities and potential fosters an environment where you can take risks and develop skills that will help you in the long run.
In the past few years, we all must have realized how precious our lives are, and that every small thing matters. The collection of these small things makes significant things happen and we learn to differentiate between what serves the right and what does not. Everyone knows our lives are short and we should do everything we want. This has been made even more clear by the events of the past years. Many of us have been forced to stay at home and reflect on our lives and mortality.
We have all seen how quickly things can change and how valuable it is to take advantage of every moment. We often take the smallest things for granted and don't realize how big an impact they can have on our lives. But as we grow older and become more aware of our mortality, we understand that life is too short to not make the most of it. We have to prioritize the things that truly matter and make the most of our time here.
As the famous American actress Lucille Ball once said: “Love yourself first and everything else falls into line. You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world.”
When we say “Oh, wow! This is the golden hour. Let's take pictures. We'd all look so gorgeous". Does that mean that when we're in the light we see ourselves as beautiful? Then it follows that when we embrace the light within us, we appear beautiful, so why not do it every day? Look at us all bright and shiny making ourselves happy and keeping people happy. So, let you be you and never let that light fade away. We’re the prettiest souls here and worthy. No one can determine your value!
The light of golden hour can remind us to appreciate ourselves and recognize our beauty. At that moment, we can recognize our worth and empower ourselves to be our most authentic selves. Self-love is something we should carry with us every day, no matter what comes our way. Ultimately, we determine our own worth.
Cherish your own special beauty and recognize that no one but you can define your worth. Let the golden hour light your inner fire and remind you to keep that flame alive no matter the circumstances. With self-love, you can stay true to yourself and create an unshakable foundation of worth and strength. Always remember that self-love is yours to keep, and it should serve as a reminder to never let anyone else define your worth.
Celebrate your individual beauty, and be confident in the knowledge that you are irreplaceable. Let the golden hour be a symbol of the inner fire that is within each and every one of us, and use that flame to remain strong and unchangeable. With self-love, you can achieve anything. For example, when facing a difficult situation, take a moment to practice self-care and self-love, such as taking a few deep breaths and reminding yourself of your strengths and accomplishments.
Remind yourself that although life can be hard, you are equipped with the inner strength and resilience to make it through any situation. Celebrate your individual beauty, and be confident in the knowledge that you are irreplaceable. It is important to recognize that you are capable of overcoming any difficulty in your life, no matter how daunting it may seem. Everyone has the potential to turn any situation around and find success, and it is important to remember that you are capable of doing this. Your unique qualities are something to be celebrated and embraced, and it is important to have confidence in your own abilities.
