February 2019 – Self Love

I know today is Valentine’s Day, the day of love. But with some events that have happened I don’t care for this day much at all. So instead of being the Anti-Valentine this blog post will be to my ex who I don’t know if he will even see this post at all but I’ll still post it.

Dear you,

Thanks to you I was able to experience many great memories but with those great me memories also came bad ones. You made me feel so many emotions all at once I couldn’t breathe at times. When I looked at your eyes I felt safe, when I laid my head on you I knew you loved me because I would hear your heart skip beats. I don’t know what happened to us, and it has already been months since our separation. But, sometimes I find myself wondering if what happened was actually reality, and I’d think it’s really weird knowing we aren’t together anymore. You broke me, and yes I’m still putting myself slowly back together, but that’s the only thing I hate you for. Your promises to me, none were kept, you left, but took parts of me with you.

I’m glad you’ve been able to move past everything, and I’ll be happy for you but just from a distance.

And I hope you have a Happy Valentine’s Day.

To everyone who reads my posts I’m very thankful for the support you constantly give me, and all the emails you send to me I’m truly grateful for every single one of you.

Hello everyone, and sorry for the little break I took from blogging.

Everyone deals with this one emotion in particular, more than we would like to, and that is called STRESS.

Have you ever cried over homework? Or even get a bad headache over stress? Been there done that way too many times than I’d like to admit myself. I wish stress just didn’t exist period, but that’s just another part of how we express our emotions as humans. Did you know the right amount of stress can be beneficial, but too much can be deadly, why? Because too much stress can make your brain cells grow at a much slower pace than it normally should, and also it can affect your immune system. Of course stress is also associated with depression, and anxiety.

Not trying to scare anyone, but this is just another reason why we should take care of our bodies! We only ever get one body, and honestly researching new stuff to do like exercises, or finding new hobbies is a great way to let some stress off of your body and helping your immune system get back into normal function.

Take me for example, I take breaks (which you all already know I’ve taken a few) and it’s okay to step back for a breather every once in awhile. I’ve been looking up painting classes cause that’s my other hobby besides blogging, and I want to get better at it but also it’s a great stress reliever for me .

Your health will always be number 1, and when you start taking care of yourself more than you normally would you will notice the change not only on your body but your face because the face is like the beginning chapter of a book you started reading. Your body will thank you.
