you are a masterpiece.

ever thought of this?:
you like people for their qualities,
but love them for their defects.

we all have faults but we all have greatness too.
you are a masterpiece.
love yourself as you love others.

i've realized sometimes, it is really hard to love who you are.
being totally honest here. people always say, love who you are. and i know i should. but i feel like if i am totally fine with who i am, then im not living. -if that makes sense.

i feel a need to dislike somethings about me, to feel like im actually alive.
sounds so weird, and no im not hating on myself.
but, no one's perfect. everyone makes mistakes. and i've gotta realize not everyday will i be happy with who i am, or what im doing. i dont have to be perfectly fine with myself. i need to not be upset with who i am right now, or who i was earlier. i'm starting to notice that every mistake and mess up i make will turn into something good to come. we learn from every mistake. every sad time, every thing has a lesson to it. if i truly want to love others, i need to love me. not exactly who i am. but i can love simple things about myself. i'm not perfect, but i am always striving to be better.


so my challenge for myself (anyone can participate also):
i'm not going to be upset with who i am, or totally arrogant about who i am. i am going to be confident. confident in a way of meaning i know who i am, and why i am here. and i am using this experience to learn.

so here's to making mistakes. becoming better. and being confident.
because;
i can be changed
by what happens to me.
i refuse

to be reduced by it.

words of wisdom.
