Only 1 out of every 5 people love themselves.
I don’t actually know if this is true, I just know I asked 5 different people this week and only 1 of them said yes.
When I asked them why, I got one answer that said because she was always told she wasn’t enough from the people in her life, and that’s become her narrative. Another said, she didn’t feel like she was doing a good job at life. Another wasn’t proud of all of her choices she had made and couldn’t forgive herself, and the final ones didn’t really want to be involved in this conversation.
I don’t love any one of these people less for any of these things. As a matter of fact I might love each of them a little bit more.
If only people could see themselves the way we see them, maybe they could love themselves a little bit, or more.
Today that is my wish.
If you are one of the four who can’t fully love yourself… then start small. Look for something you can love about yourself.
And if you can only find one thing, then love the heck out of it.
