Added 2024-05-24 18:01:03 +0000 UTCLately, everything seems to be slipping through my fingers. l've noticed that whenever I start to dislike myself, everything starts to fall apart.
Yesterday, I accidentally broke a mirror, and the day before, I spilled a glass of water on my laptop. It's already old, and I'm afraid it won't survive this flood 🥲
What l've realized yet again is that all the problems are just in my head. As soon as l start thinking I'm not pretty, smart, thin, or successful enough, everything in life starts to spiral towards what I fear the most.
Sometimes it's hard to find the strength within and see myself from the outside. Basically, I want to tell myself, "Lena, stop criticizing yourself already, everything's fine, just live your life and cherish the moments in any way, but just appreciate them."
Maybe l've read too many books about self-love and other possibly naive books, but why not? Why not live naively and enjoy everything that there is?
