"and if i ask you to name all the things that you love, how long would it take to name yourself?"
When you're done dealing with your life or your routine for that day, just take some time off for yourself. Let it be minutes or hours. When you do, look around what's happening around you, realize it and take a deep breath. Take in the present because we either live too much in the past or are always thinking about the future.
Do whatever that pleases you. Watch a movie. Listen to music. Take a bath with relaxing music. Throw on your pj's, put on an ugly face mask, blast Taylor Swift music and dance around like no one's watching you. Don't think about the stressful life you have to go through. For a second just love yourself. How you are. For a second, just pretend as if you have nothing to worry about. These little things and these few minutes is how you find happiness.
Remember what you mean something to this world and don't get lost in the fact that you're hopeless or let your insecurities get the better of you. Remember that somewhere in this planet, somebody loves you. That somebody is dying to meet you. Yes, you. With your frizzy hair, freckles, big nose, glasses and what not.That someone will love your very weird laugh and laugh at your lame jokes. Someone on this weird-ass planet appreciates you for who you are and not who you pretend to be. You are an amazing person and have the potential to do wonderful things. Don't let the past define you. Don't let other people affect the way you look at things. Instead, look at yourself. You're perfect just the way you are.

Authors Note: Let your heart love yourself first, before you let it love someone else.
