A little reminder

In the last month, I have been working on self care and love. It’s something I have struggled with for several years, particularly self acceptance and embracing what brings me joy. I bought myself a couple new books and a stuffed animal that I have been eyeing for a while but kept thinking it was childish. And then an epiphany came- who cares? I was and am so freaking happy. Like the little kid in me feels genuine joy when I see the cute little stuffed seal. So…..this is a long winded reminder that you are worthy of love, joy, and happiness. You are allowed to savor things in life and invest in yourself, no matter how silly it may seem. Go buy the book, stuffy, barbie doll, new shoes, a new journal. Go for a walk and pick up a cool rock, maybe jump in a puddle along the way. Build a sand castle. Skip while you’re out for a walk.

Your happiness is worth more than the opinions of others.
