Self-Love: What is something you would like to gift yourself?
Often, we spend money and our thoughts shopping for gifts for others, but what is the gift you would like to gift yourself?
Me: A paid vacation with my family in a beautiful place
forgiveness.

Having spent a terrifying number of years my everything to everyone except myself, I would like to gift myself the strength to be my own person
If we are talking physical gifts then, @MorsVicta - I would totally take a spa day massage or a couple of days on a beach somewhere far far away.
@optimisticcup1
Strength to be my own person-that's more valuable than anything materialistic combined. :) Amazing gift.
@optimisticcup1 it all starts with self love and being selfish with yourself people will take offence to it at first but don't be shaken, this is what you owe yourself
Confidence!
@braveHuman2040
Yes confidence can be worked on, so don't give up.
@adoredHug70
From having anxiety, stress and insomnia over the past few months... this week Ive really changed myself for the better... I am thinking positively, I feel happy, I feel strong... my bad thoughts still come at times but through my positivity I push them away so they dont control me... I never thought I could do that but its like Ive had an awakening... I guess confidence will come as I still to love myself more and feel better about myself... thank you for your support!
Confidence
Ability to stay focused
@IAmFluffy
Those are some very great values you would like to gift yourself! :)
@adoredHug70
Id like to be able to keep myself from becoming obsessed with someone who decides they dont want me in their life
i have a depression and bipolar attacks which changes my personality and people cant handle what accidentally happens when I say and act out of control
even though I never actually hurt them
and explain and apologize over and over with deep regret
Same!!! A place where there is bountiful of nature and little bit cold :) Alaska, Ireland sounds lovely! @adoredHug70
@Nyssa2506
