Stand Up For Love! RT

Hello Beauties!!

So every now and then I will be posting up what I like to call real talk (RT). It's basically me just talking to you guys about a topic that I find worth talking about and it could be about anything! I will try to put in the title RT so you know its a post about a topic other than make-up (for those of you whom are not interested in my babbling! lol )
So I wanted to talk about love...but not just any love...about self-love. (Because honestly I can not help you out with your love life LOL save that for the professionals!) What I can help with is encouraging women/men/anyone to feel love for themselves. We live in a society where things are so fast paced and there are tons of messages being sent in our direction "buy this, drive this, eat this, go here, wear that!" and sometimes it can be a little chaotic. We should take the time to be aware of ourselves and what we want even if that means taking out five minutes of your day to address any feelings of low confidence and/or low self-esteem. Because to be honest who doesn't have those days?...you know, when you're sitting at home thinking to yourself "i wish I were ______" or when you're walking around minding your business when suddenly you see someone with ____ and you just picture yourself having that too! I mean I can totally relate, like there are days where I am wondering where some of these women find the time to get their hair done and makeup done before an 8 AM class, and then I think to myself well, maybe thats their own way of showing themselves some love, by looking good!Because when you look good you feel good too! So basically what I am saying is we all have days or moments when we feel down about anything, weight, height, hair, make-up, pimples, not having the right car, not having the right phone ETC. I recently heard the phrase "count your blessings not your problems" and this is exactly what i am trying to get at. You are special and beautiful, and don't you forget it!  So love yourself! Compliment yourself! Look in the mirror and focus on the positive things! Write down your best traits and post them around your room to remind you each and everyday that you are special!
Don't forget that the most important person that matters is YOU! Be strong, Be happy, and show yourself some love everyday!
