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 someone said, I'm a good judge of people's characters and I can sense the motivation behind their action.
I could 'read between the lines'. What seems to be trivial like color, smol details, oftentimes have deep meaning in it, and I will never overlook those things. 🤓🔎
@VictoriaLove7
Being observant, intuitive, thoughtful and immensely careful; you're so wonderful, Vicc! ❤
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
So are you, Sunshine! 🌞
I read what you like about yourself is your adaptive nature. What other things do you like about you? ❤
Or I can help you to name 10000 more things 🥰
@VictoriaLove7 Aww Vicc *hugs tightttt* ❤
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
I will start with some 🥰
Your creativity, your eloquent writings, your patience (I really hope that you be patient and gentle with yourself too).
*hugs back tightttt*❤
I like the fact that I’m alive and trying to be a better person. Oh I like that I can cook good tasting food too.
I like my stubborness and determination. I would not be here without either of them.
What a lovely thread to celebrate the positive, thank you for that.
@sooty41
Hiyaaa! Always good to see you in the forumland, I'm glad you find it a great idea to spread the positivity too hehe! ❤Big ups for being stubborn, determined and here. Sooo proud of you! ❤
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Thank you for such kind comments. Sending you big hugs and positivity and never underestimate the power of the good that you do xx
@sooty41 Aww that means a lot to me!❤

@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Whoo-hoo. So excited to do this , also I have no clue how it will come out. A verbal diaherea? Nay , better...maybe? Here it goes:
Ahem me as a stranger, would say I am a learning person. Learning from good memories, hurtful incidents , critizims, quotes , books , plants animals, landscapes...almost everything I see ,WHEN I am in a pleasant -observing mindspace. And the lessons helps me , to be more wise , strong , opinionated and equipped. And the second thing is , I go insane when I am hurting. Meltdowns take a while to pass. Leaves me stronger each time , thats one pro among many others I am super greatful about. Third , I somehow bounce back quickly, when something goes wrong. It never easy at all, but it somehow happens quick.
@Emerbliss
Haha it went well, I suppose. So glad you shared! ❤
Yay for being a learner-for-life, I love how you said "pleasant -observing mindspace" I think it's such an important skill to have~ being observant and finding something to learn and improve with in life continually. You're such a powerhouse of inspiration! I don't think I've come across many people talking about meltdowns in a good light, it's again quite inspiring how you can find something "positive" about it, so proud of you and for your resilience. ❤
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou , Jeez , Sun this is a late reply. I have no clue why I keep missing tags. Please know that it's not done by choice. Alsooo thank you for your kind words! Yes , trying to maintain a positive mindset is the best start literally everything good
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou, also there is one point that just caught my attention in your post , school don't teach us to love ourselves 😭. And saying that it's unfair would be the least. Some school literally held exams about values but none talks about being kind to yourself! It's so beautifully observant of you to notice it. I will keep that in mind if I get to redeem that in any small levels I can , if I get to do so
@Emerbliss
Aww exactly hehe, lots of room for improvement!❤
I'm so happy you found it as relevant too, thankyouu so so much for your thoughtful and sweet replies always!❤
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou. Thank *you* too Sun.
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
hellooooooo 😊 😆
I love my desire for growth and improvement.
Hi! I love this thread. I'm a big fan of BTS and this reminds me of their Love Myself message.
I love how I've persevered through so much.
I also love how I have a talent for writing children's books.
@BorahaeAndHappiness
An Army hehe, kinda made that out from your username already, and I'm so glad the message reminded you of their message. 🥰
Woah you love writing children's books? That is so awesome and definitely worth appreciating! So is your perseverance and resilience braving through everything you've been through! Super proud of you! 💜
