Be a good friend.
Let's be the best friend we can be to ourselves. 💜

Let's be the best friend we can be to ourselves. 💜
Let's stop defining or limiting ourselves because of those who don't/didn't appreciate us. Let's give ourselves loving eyes. 💜
Be it lending a small amount, offering to do a task, giving cheer up snacks or a flower, sending a message of support, any help helps. Let's not forget to acknowledge those who aid in any capacity. : )
Sure, it feels nice when you get to please others.
But...Are you acting according to your beliefs? Or are you acting at the expense and detriment of your own comfort, mental health & self-worth?
May you find the balance between being you and being there for others.

Whether at home, in a relationship, friendship, or at work, we need to learn to speak up for ourselves.
A step no matter how small brings you closer to healing and improving.
Rooting for all of you! 💜
I was casually chatting with my former colleague when she mentioned that time when we had lunch then she cried out of the blue.
She thanked me for not forcing her to open up and for inviting her for coffee after work.
I didn't do anything special on that day but apparently, what I did made a difference.
What makes this exchange even more meaningful?
My former colleague doesn't know I'm going through a rough patch. Her gesture is a welcome reprieve as it feels nice to learn that I did something right.
What I learned is that any act of kindness creates ripples. A polite smile, a simple token, or a random message can make someone's day.
I do have bad memories. Lots! But those shouldn't stop me from being grateful for all the good times. 💜
Being introspective is necessary. Being silly at times or thinking things with a bit of humor can be helpful too. ; )
