Love brings love.

The moment I realised what an amazing person I am was when I met people that actually accepted me. I met my wonderful boyfriend in January of this year and with our every night out I can feel him as sunshine on my skin. He was the one that helped me embrace my true emotions and aspirations. He saw my quirks, my dreams, even my insecurities—and instead of pulling away, he celebrated them. There was a moment when I confessed something I’d always felt embarrassed about, expecting him to judge me, but instead he smiled and told me that was one of the things he loved most about me. It was like someone flipped a switch: I understood that the things I thought made me “too much” or “not enough” were actually what made me unique and worthy of love. So just a tip of advice, try to understand yourself and maybe Sometiems try to see yourself from the eyes of someone that loves you. When I look at myself through my boyfriend’s eyes I only see love. Try to see yourself through someone that loves you eyes, maybe your mom says you’re smart your dad says your funny, try to understand and accept those characteristics and soon, you will love yourself.
