Do you know what is the best feeling? Or maybe, one of the best feelings you ever felt? For me, it is the feeling of thanking, hugging ourselves.
I’ve just experienced it a while ago. When I was studying for my biology exam, and I can memorise then interpret what I learn like, very well, I thank myself for that. For doing the best, for prioritising what really matter.
Though, I know it’s not that healthy, that I just felt it now, that I just thanking myself only when I succeeded, it’s not that healthy.
But I remember clearly that it felt so good... to be proud of yourself...
I don’t know. It felt so long ago that I’m genuinely proud of myself. Not being arrogant, not feeling satisfied, but feeling proud. I don’t even know if I ever felt that kind of feeling before. And I want it more... I really want to feel proud and just being good to myself. I mean, who doesn’t? But then, who’s really succeeded to accept themselves?
Eversince I knew the word self-love and the meaning of it, maybe from my early teenage years, I’ve been encouraging people to do it... But did I do that too? Accepting myself, being proud of myself, do I really do that?
