What Do You Like About Yourself? ♡
❤
Hey hey lovely people coming across! I hope the new year is treating everyone well so far! Here's a hope, it gets only better for us!🌻
Sooooo, are you someone who finds it hard to compliment themselves? Or hard to even accept a compliment from someone else?
If you are one, I'd like to assure you, you aren't alone!
It is kinda unfair how schools don't teach us how to be kind to ourselves, how to love ourselves, how to accept compliments, how to express ourselves and sometimes even, how to be ourselves! All these years of education for what :P
But anyway, what someone else cannot teach us, we can learn or atleast try to teach ourselves, always at our pace though!
But Sunnnnnn, how to do it, it's haaaaaarddddd lol ~ oh yes, sun knows and sun agrees and sun relates! But sun is rooting for you! 🤗
Sooo, I came across something like an outside perspective, because sure, we cannot do it for ourselves often, we'd be hesitant in trusting a loved one because again, they could be biased but how about an absolute stranger? They don't know us, they don't see us as we do, they see us as we *are* and so there's a chance they don't have any reason to lie, or sugarcoat.
There is always something about you to be admired. Try to imagine what a stranger would think about you from a neutral, unbiased, unfiltered opinion.
You have qualities to admire, even if you’re self-conscious about yourself, or simply hesitant to accept it. Look at yourself like you would anyone else, and realize how amazing you are. Just The Way You Are ( oh yes, Bruno Mars fans, where y'all at👀 )
Nowww did everyone get it already, or need I say more xD
Green signal to everyone, tell us what is something, anything that you like about yourself, it can be something about your physical appearance, a quality you have, something you feel you are good at, something you achieved and are proud for, literally anything counts here!
Just deep breaths in, deep breaths out, clear ya mind and tell your anxiety it is lying ~ you do have something worth *your* liking, all you need is to acknowledge, accept and appreciate it! And so I hope, saying it here, helps in someway!
Andddd ofcourse, please feel free to tag fellow cupsers to participate as well!

Something I like about myself is that I'm hardworking and determined to achieve my goals. What do you like about yourself @Sunisshiningandsoareyou?
@CheeryMango aye yay to being a Bruno Mars fan❤️ and thankyou for participating, Mango! You're indeed super hardworking and determined, love that about you.
Something that I like about myself is my openness to diverse perspectives and adaptive nature hehe. 😃
Something I like about myself is I always try & be strong in these times especially are difficult .
I love your post I used to say the exact same thing that they should teach in schools about self love , self care & all that you said in your post . Lovely & thank you for sharing :)
I believe in self care so much as it is important to be like your own best friend as well as being nice & kind to other's .
Aww hey @lovelyWords13 your username certainly fits so well, I am touched to hear your reply!
I am glad you feel the same hehe, perhaps we need to revamp our education system lol! Anyway, thankyouu for the kind words, greatly appreciated!
I like how you said it, kindness is so so vital for oneself and others, takes legit nothing to be kind! ❤
Standing strong despite the tough situations is really something admirable and worth being proud of! You're wonderful, keep sailing through! 🤗
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
One thing I like about myself is I am easy to get a long with
Hey @Angels2022, being easy to get along with is such an amazing trait to have, I admire this one lots! Thanks for sharing! ❤
One thing I like about myself is that there's something good in me, somewhere.
Hey @littleBunny2375, you're here reaching out for support and wanting to be at a better place in life, emotionally and mentally, that's a sign of growth, perseverance, staying hopeful, a "can-do" perception in life and those are just few of the many good things in *you*, take your time to explore and believe, you got this and I am certainly rooting for you! ❤
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou Yay! Thanks for writing! I've been doing some rooting too lately and I reconected with this positive part. Feeling kind, compassionate, patient, understanding and willing to help :)
@littleBunny2375 aw ofcourse, and I am so happy hear that, reconnection for the win! 😃
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Something I like about myself is how passionate I am about musical theatre! I think it's important to have something that makes you feel lifted up no matter what's happening.
Hey @MusicalBug, can see your passion in your username as well! Woohoo! Much agree, having something that uplifts us, is having more than enough in life! Go Youuu!❤
Hi friends! I like my sense of humor and how I can act silly and not take life so seriously ! that is something a lot of people should practice! Enjoy every second and try to laugh as much as possible!
Hey @heartfulEndfoftherainbow3, I so agree with you! A good balance between work and play, and taking in some moments to smile and laugh, is a great great practice! I like the way you live hehe! Keep it up! ❤
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
I am proud of being able to take time for myself and recharge instead of being around people all the time.
Hey @Doglover56717 , I am so proud of you too! It's not an easy thing to put ourselves first often, so glad you did and took some time to recharge, you deserve it for yourself! ❤
(I am certain people who read your reply will feel inspired too, because I for one, really am! So well, count another great thing in you, you inspire people to choose themselves first! )
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Wow, I am thinking way too long and hard about this.
Something I like about myself is that I like to help others, every act of kindness feels like a reward.
Aw hey @adventurousPeach4460, the fact you thought deeply also shows your willingness to make an effort to see the good in you, that's another admirable trait in a human!
How sweet of you to enjoy helping people, and being kind! I agree, kind deeds indeed are so satisfying and rewarding! I hope the kindness you give out to others, returns to you in a huge multiple!❤
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou , I subscribed to this post and saved it, I am sure I am coming here again to read those genuine and beautiful words c: 💙
Especially this part: " Just deep breaths in, deep breaths out, clear ya mind and tell your anxiety it is lying ~ you do have something worth *your* liking, all you need is to acknowledge, accept and appreciate it! And so I hope, saying it here, helps in someway! "
Okayy so something like about myself , bear with my dear reader cause Imma brag about few things about myself lol, (it's super okay and actually good to brag sometimes 😛)
I am yes that "someone" who finds it hard to complete myself, but but I have started maintaining a journal on " things I love about myself" it is really helpful to me in many ways c: I write there regularly whenever I feel " oh this is something really good about me, I should write that down" :P
So few things I like about myself:
▪︎ My eyes
▪︎ The fact that just simple act of kindness is enough to make my day.
▪︎ I am resilient, hopeful.
▪︎ I actually work hard to make my everyday life better despite the struggles.
▪︎ I appreciate people who deserve to be, in any possible way I can.
▪︎ Even if I am going through something very painful, or worst I still find a reason to share a laugh or smile, it make easy for me to keep going.
▪︎ I came along a long journey from " i hate myself " to " i love myself" .
▪︎ I know somedays are going to be just as worst as they could be, but there's always a hope that next day's going to be better. I assure myself lot of times that " it's going to be ok" and that's something me loves about myself.
▪︎ My silly nature :P another thing that keeps me going c:
▪︎ I try my bestest to be there for people I care about and never let them feel " alone".
▪︎ c: I am an open minded person.
▪︎ More in my personal journal xD (enough bragging for today 😛)

@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Me don’t have pikaplushie 😔 but me will most likely be getting one this year ahaha 😛
and how I accidentally made marbled cake 😛 listen up kiddos (*cough* teenies *cough*) and oldies
so lets say i have 2 packet cake mix things 😛 one vanilla and one chocolate
you make the cake batter individually and when you go put it in cake pan
lets say we put chocolate on the bottom, and when we use all the chocolate cake batter then we put vanilla on top
and then throw it into the oven (don’t literally throw it otherwise you wrecked the cake 😞) and while it cooks it mixes itself and it looks so cool (yes i have done this multiple times (after the first accidental time ahaha))
@emotionalTalker2260 aw yay get a pika plushie soon! 😃
"Kiddos"~ 😛

Thank you for tagging me Aikyaa ❣️
Somethings I like about myself are
✨ My open mindedness, the ability to see the best in others and the extend to which I go to try and understand others
✨ I trust myself and believe that I can get through anything even if it might be hard initially
✨ The ways I push myself out of my comfort zone despite the fears and for never giving up on my dreams
✨ Being open to learning, my love for books and for being open to new perspectives.
✨ For constantly working on myself, taking things one at a time, being kind to myself and trying my best each day
@Exulansis00 , and that makes you more and more beautiful. ❤️ You is owsum and you have to agree!
@Aikyaa01 😮 I thought I'd answered this one (or maybe it was in a group 🤔)
Anyways, the thing I like most about myself is to be able to slow down, take a break, reflect and then resume 😇

Hey lovely @Aikyaa01, I am so glad you found this post "save-worthy", you're more than welcome to come back here anytime you need a reminder, or have something to share with us! ❤
I know this isn't easy, and so I'd like to commend you for trying, and doing so well at it!
I enjoyed this list a lot, you know why! I'll sum in a few words still (xD), I am incredibly proud of you for trying and doing your best, you've been working on yourself, you chose healing, you chose to love yourself, you chose to stay hopeful and continue growing and sailing through the storms, and during all this while too, you chose to stay kind, supportive, loving, appreciative and caring for others around, you chose the *light* and so i hope, the light in you, and that around you, always shines the brightest, and always chooses you too!
Me is so so proud of you today and everyday! *hugs*
(And right right, Bragging aka being honest about how amazing you are, is super okay always🤗)
A message for Aikya's personal diary: "you know one of the most beautiful people ever, please always remind them of it, in case they forget."
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
^ I completely, wholeheartedly and truly agree to all that Sunnie said!
@lumieremilkyway ❤️ c: you also have to agree that you're the awesomestestest. :p
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou Am I allowed to cry reading this? I think, yes c: ❤️
Aikyaa's is sooooooo proud of Sunny too and Sunny knows it. ❤️
thanksiee for the message c: *feels super honored to be called beautiful by the most beautiful person I have ever known* ("Beauty lies in the eyes of beholder* 😛😏❤️)
@Aikyaa01
I loved reading your list so much, Aikyaa ❤️ Those are some really beautiful words and I am happy because those are some things all of us see in you as well. *high fives* on keeping that journal of things you love about yourself, I'm super duper proud of you! I love and appreciate everything about you, I'm sending you many hugs! Thank you so much for tagging me here -
1. I love how beautiful I find things about other people, external things and myself.
2. I love my sense of humour though most people think it's too basic, lol.
3. I love that I wanted to mention those two things about myself.
(I can't think of more things that I love about myself because I feel I have come to love myself the way I love someone else; I can't explain why, I just do. But as for the purpose, this activity was started for, I'm pretty damn amazing in every way that I have come to love.)
PS. Thank you so much for this wonderful post, Sunnie! (@Sunisshiningandsoareyou) you're just a lovely soul, and just seeing you around is enough for us to witness your warmth. I appreciate everything about you - things I know, things I have yet to learn, you are beautiful and you're shining the brightest 🌟
@lumieremilkyway thank youuu so muchh. ❤️ I liked how you put it in a most genuine and beautiful way.

Interesting to happen across this post- recently after watching a video about negative self talk, I’ve become more aware of my inner dialogue and have been trying to use affirmations when I remember to, even if they sound wrong to say.
so, I like that I can draw and paint. Being an artist is one of the few things that is a constant positive in my life, and I’m proud of myself for continuing to practice and create things even though I don’t have much time to do so.
Hey hey @ramblingways1108, now that's a lovely coincidence hehe!
To begin with, I'd like to commend you for being open to learn more about yourself and increase self awareness, especially regarding the negative self talk!
They say, our mind is a garden, and we are like gardeners, it's on us on what kind of seeds we choose to grow and how much we feed those. In other words, feeling our mind with positive affirmations and good thoughts, it's a great great practice.
I get what you mean about sometimes feeling wrong about them, I'd say, anything new is uncomfortable in the beginning, but we can try our best, and take things one day at a time, chances are we will start to believe what we feed our mind with! So a big yay for your efforts, and positive affirmations.
We had an exercise recently on the same, you can check it Here(clickable), I hope it helps someway!
Art is so therapeutic as well, glad it has been a positive thing in your life constantly and being able to make time for it despite the circumstances you're in! To me, you also come across very self aware, determined, passionate, perseverance, hopeful and open to change and looking out for the bright side in life, these are all super admirable traits! Keep thriving, you got this! ❤
