All these years I used to depend so much on people to give me happiness not knowing I am the only person that could give myself happiness.
Over the years I expect people to always stay by my side so that I am not alone and I can be happy,i always expect people to treat me in a certain way and do things for me just like i imagine them in my head but nothing is permanent, not even human live.Therefore, I decided to quit.
I quit having others to control my own happiness. And that is why I have had to learn to become my own best friend. There were many nights I spent crying myself to sleep, sad, and lonely with almost every given heartache. Times I felt like life was not worth living because of how words and actions of other people affected me.
Over time, I realized that I had to learn to comfort myself to overcome the pain. It's a process, and I am still learning how to do it, but I have gotten so much better. I can honestly say that I am my own best friend.
Love yourself and treat yourself as you would treat your very best friend. You know yourself better than anyone, prioritize your happiness, You deserve the same love you gave to others and there is nobody that could give the same love to you like you give to yourself.
If you are going through a similar situation right now,I hope this gives you comfort and the motivation to start afresh.
Thank you for taking the time to read.
Very good reflection and not to forget that the best friend always wants us to move forward and tells us the truth in our face without fear of hurting feelings because he knows our capabilities and is confident that we can be better 💪🙏🤘
Thank you for your contribution, what you said is very correct. But it is hard at times to find someone who is very genuine.
This was a nice read dear. Self love is very important, sometimes we went extreme for others at the expense of our own priorities. But it is well.
Have you heard of the newbie initiatives? I would love you to apply for it as it'll be of a great benefit to you.
