These days, I like myself, and it's a big thing to say. I used to be that girl who is longing to be someone else, to be that friend with "rich parents", to be that friend with "great hair/ nose/ skin/ height/ body shape, to be that friend who has a better life/ bigger salary/ prestigious job/ luxurious vacation. Yes, I wanted to have a life that was different from my own life.  I felt my life was too average, too mediocre. 

These days, I like myself, and it's a big thing to say. I believe I have an interesting life, I have charming features, and I am happily going to work every Monday to Friday because I have some great friends at work and the salary could cover most of my expenses and the installment of the debt(s).

These days, I like myself, and it's a big thing to say. I have an energetic 11 y.o boy who spends his days without social media on the phone, and he never complains about this. I provide him with a very basic mobile phone to communicate, not to share anything into the labyrinth of social media.  Yes, I am that kind of parents, and I don't care what others say regarding my decision.  

These days, I like myself,and it's a big thing to say. My hair is starting to become a silvery crown and I like it. I'm kinder to my self and I don't seek approval from others anymore. I am grateful and perhaps... Just perhaps...  I could have 50 years more to live in gratitude like this .... it's a beautiful life to live in.
