hey there cutie! i hope you are doing lovely this valentine's day, with or without a valentine! personally, i don't have a valentine and that doesn't bother me that much.
a little while ago,iI was having a meeting with one of my dad's old co-workers who is a successful business woman now (i still don't really know what her job is), and i asked her what things i should pay focus on in life.
she told me that the most important thing is to take care of yourself before anyone else.
become your own best friend.
enjoy your own company.
but most of all, you must take care of yourself before you even think about caring for others.
like the oxygen masks in airplanes, you HAVE to put yours on before helping anyone else. to me, this means that you need to make time for yourself each day, do things that you love to do. whether that's playing your sport, going to the movies, hanging out with friends, literally whatever, take that time for yourself each day.
by doing this, you are able to enjoy yourself and each of those things are a form of self care. if you care for yourself, you will be so much happier because you know it as well. once you realize this too, you'll soon be able to love others even more. so, today, take time to do something you love.
another thing that you should do this valentines day is tell the people that you love that you love them. as i've said billions of times before, you never know what is going on in someone else's life, so be a little extra kind.
today is all about love, but it doesn't have to be just romantic love, it can be familial or platonic, too.
letting the your people know that you love them could brighten their day so much more than you know. my little brother, han, tells me randomly all the time that he loves me, and coming from a 6 year old, it means a lot.
in commemoration of this day, i'll insert a few pictures below of some of my favorite people.
thank you so much for reading today's post! i've been loving blogging so much and i'm so grateful that i have the privilege to do this. i absolutely love everyone that has read these because it just means so much to me. so have the best day eva! catch you on the next one!!
don't wish for it, work for it.
