Motivation: I Love Me

Tagged:

After having a conversation with someone i consider to be my mentor now
I have come to some conclusions about myself. Whether or not you read
this in its entirety does not phase me.

I am worth something. When people treat me like shit, it is because
I allowed them do so. I saw myself as shit, so how else would I expect
myself to be treated. Well, no more dammit. I am worth more than I have
let people treat me. I am not a piece of shit. I am not a piece of
trash. I am worth way more than I have sold myself for. I amfucking
priceless. My worth can not be auctioned off. It's time for me to stop
settling for less out of life.

I am beautiful. True it may be that I have blemishes and bad break
outs at times, but that's life. That shit will pass one day. I may not
have the straightest hair, the prettiest hair, the most gorgeous smile,
etc, but to someone I am picture fucking perfect. And its time for me
to start looking in the fucking mirror and loving the image looking
back at me. Because I can do all types of shit to change my image so
that you all will love the way that I look, but what good is it if I
don't really see that shit and am just trying to convince myself. FUCK
THAT SHIT. I embrace all of my imperfections and I am fucking perfect
the way I am. You can take it or leave it, but it doesn't matter what
you see. Beauty is in the eye of this beholder.

I am attracted to people full of shit. It is true. I do find the
pretty girl that tells me all the shit that I want to hear and I fall
hard for her. Maybe not in love, but deep in like. Im like a fly to
that shit. And I can't allow myself to do that anymore. I can't believe
every word that I hear. I can't fall for every smile that I see. Pretty
girls are the most complicated and fucked up people. They are usually
the ones that need to grow up the most. Not just pretty people, the
pretty people that I get into relationships with. We all have our
flaws, but at some point I have to learn when it's enough. No person's
bullshit is worth my happiness. NO ONE'S.

I am talented. Fuck yes I am. I can write my little ass off,
although I will admit that I write some mediocre shit at times. I can
sing. If I put my hear into it I could have a record deal. I have had
so many oppurtunities given to me that I just let me pass me by. I can
do ballet. I really can. If I went and took a class and put my heart
into it like I did when I was younger, ballet isnt hard. What else? I
can do hair. Hell yes. And I made it my hustle for awhile. I was making
money but then I got lazy. So I sit here and blog because it shows that
I can write and Im not wasting my talent. Singing-- well im in an
acapella group. That's all that I can handle with that right now
because I'm so shy. Ballet-- im taking a ballet class next semester. So
over the summer Im going to do some working out so that I wont be out
of shape. I probably do have more talents than I know. Time to find
them out when I start to get to know myself.

I am someone. Yes I am. I might not be someone to you. But to me, I
am going to start being someone. I'm going to carry myself like I'm
fucking famous because I am my number one fan. Hell yes I am. I'm going
to take pictures of myself like Im the star and the paparazzi. I am
Dope and fly because I say so. I am who I make myself. And on this
night, I AM SOMEONE.

I need to love myself a little more and stop giving my all to the
world. I can't worry about what she is doing every moment of her life
because Im just wasting my own life away. I know that she is living her
life and not worrying shit about what I am doing at the moment that she
is living. So why the hell am I sitting on my ass worrying about what
she is doing? Loving her more and more every moment because it is
possible for me to love. But now I need to put all that effort into my
fucking self. I need to worry about what the hell I am doing? Am i
eating right? Exercising enough? NO? Well it's time for me to take care
of that shit. I need to first love myself before I can love anyone
else. I cant put her needs and her wants before my own any longer. I
can longer risk my own happiness just to make sure that she is forever
happy with what I am doing. On judgment day, whether or not she found
me perfect wont get me to where I need to be. So fuck that. I love
Jasmine. I do. I love myself more than I love anyone. Me first then
her. Its not cocky. Its self-acceptance.

I truly am happy for you that you can be proud of who you are.

It took a lot for me to get in that mind set and I am sill trying to actually love myself

This is one of the best entries i"ve read on this site...I have the same problems, the falling for people who tell the biggest lies (but have the most beautiful smiles to go with their big lies,) the lack of love for myself, letting people walk all over me like a welcome mat...

My friend Susan says I need to say this to myself everyday often (and it might help you too,) "I am not a FUCKING doormat!" And I'm not. And you are not!

Love,
Sycamore Fitch
