Why, at 23, I feel so inaccomplished and lacking.
I don't have a healthy lifestyle. I'm not even a regular employee, what more an owner of my own business. I don't travel much. I can count the places I went to (and passed by riding on a bus) using one hand. I don't even have savings. I just have a huge amount of debt and countless of things I want to do.
At 23, I still feel ugly. Save all the shits because we know this one is true. Most of the time its downsides resonate to work, emotion, relationship, and self-worth. No matter what people say that you shouldn't be affected by mean words, stares, or judgement being thrown at you, you will still be affected. It will ruin all the self-love you once kept so hidden in your heart. Just like that. Because even the ones you treasure will be the ones that will tell you that you are ugly and that it sucks to be with you.
At 23, I realized that no matter how hard I try, I am still inadequate. I'm still less than everyone else. Can't even be accepted to top companies. Can't even pass a year without random and not-so random people bringing me down.
At 23, I find joy in lying down inside my room, away from judging eyes. I find peace in knowing there will be no one to judge me whether I keep my hair messy long and tangled, or whether I haven't take a bath at 3 P.M.
At 23, despite the negativity, I still feel blessed in realizing that only few friends who truly care for you and loves you will do just fine. I find contentment in experiencing the love of my partner. That with those messy fights, mistakes, and misundertandings, we experience the raw human feelings. We understand that we are our own person, that it's okay not to be perfect, and you still have your family to backyou up as well.
At 23, I believe that there are invisible hands that guide us all in this hunger-driven world. These hands are not what the pretentious wants it to be portrayed. He does not love with conditions. At least, that's what I believe. So if I gave up and decided to finally leave, I know that He'll understands. I know that He'll be there at the other side no matter how well or poor I did in this fleeting world.
At 23, these are my thoughts.

Don't be too hard on yourself. I do get where you are coming from. I was really ambitious when I was you're age and was pretty hard on myself. It felt like I wasn't accomplishing anything in life. All I can say is that give yourself time for everything, you will soon find out as you age you become wiser as well. In no time you'll find yourself a steady job, suddenly you'll be seeing your bank account savings steadily grow and who knows love could be just around the corner.
I was so like you when I was in my twenteens, now after a decade I can say all the worries of the past is behind me. Savings, a relationship, feeling good about myself. I've found it. Soon you'll find these too. I wish you the best!
Thank you! Your words are forever engraved in me.

Adorable heart @debilog,
Always remember, those who try to bring you down are bitter about themselves and it has nothing to do with you. Remember they are fighting a battle no one knows and want to lash out. Remember, you are beautiful and this has nothing to do with facial look, you spoke your heart out, you already purged your heart out, you are beautiful in and out. Remember, life will either bless you or bury you, and it is not what others say about you that matters, it is what you say to yourself when they are done talking. You are stronger than you think and in this community we will gently bear you up. This is my small message to you. Be strong. Focus your energy on those who matter, remember you always have something to offer. Much love.
thank you! I can feel all your warm wishes for me. thank you
You are most welcome and you are not alone. 🤗🤗🤗

Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do with your
Life.
The most interesting people I know didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still don't.
-Sunscreen
Thank you. You don't know how much these words make me happy. 😊
I wish you a day filled with... laughter, love and a lot of fun times. Happy birthday to you!
A heartfelt thank you 😊
The most important thing I learned in 20 years on this earth to never give up.
Thank you for this 😊
Quite touching...
You are beautiful and unique the way u are, people will always talk, that's their worst.
Pls gird up your loins, You're too strong to be weak.
Thank you, idunique 😊 I will bear that in mind
Believe me if you leave this world without accomplishing what you are supposed to, the Man at the other side will not be happy
I hope I don't reach that point though ☺
You are just too loaded their. I will start following your posts from now on.
Thank you. I hope I write good posts in the coming days
I hope to read more about you and your posts as well. Let's steemit together.
Writing is very catchy and it was interesting to read. Keep doing that! I hope you are not pretending in it.
Thank you! Actually, I wrote that hours before I received the confirmation from steemit. My day didn't start beautifully but it did end well! The steemit community contributed a lot of kind words to me.
There always comes certain phases in our lives where we just feel totally lost again and not good enough. It’s not the first time, and it’s not the last time. It’s just something we as humans have to deal with. Even very successful people I know often feel this way they are just really good at hiding it from the world.
For many New Year’s is coming up. It’s the perfect time to start thinking how is the year 2018 going to be better and what can you start doing today to make it better.
If you are uncertain about this that is just perfectly normal. Seemit is a great place to start and it provides a lot of wonderful opportunities.
Have a wonderful weekend and I hope you find something to be inspired by or be the inspiration for someone else!
Thank you so much @enjar 😊 have a wonderful weekend, too!
Noooo, please don't say that. 😭 There's still a whole life ahead of you, more time to reach things and goals you once thought you wouldn't. And I know you're worth more than you think. 💕
Also, may pagasa sa Steemit! Steemit promises, and it delivers. ✋ I can attest to that. 😊 At dahil patapos na ang 2017, have a blessed 2018!
Thank you @erangvee 😚 overwhelmed with the support here 😊
Every creation by God is beautiful, no ugly. You are still young, you can still do more. Do not be too hard on yourself. Being pessimistic is something that every person is not immune to. Use that negativity as your motivation to strive for more.
Thank you!
Welcome kabayan.
Awwww. I feel your struggles, most times, I don't look into the mirror not because am ugly, but no selflove. Inner beauty is the key to happiness my dear friend and at 23, I bet you are beautiful with those magical thoughts. All you need to do is to raise the rest of your life to meet you. You are beautiful, you have a pure soul. 😘 can we chat on whatsap?
Aww thank you. I just saw your comment after so long but thank you, still
You are welcome @debilog. Hope you are doing well, can we connect off steemit
