Loving Myself
Most often than not, I hav heard enoff of pple tellin me or saying tis "U hav to love urself first b4 anyone can love u". I alwaes I tot I understood wat it meant. "Loving myself? I do!" I tot to myself. I hav been pampering myself by spending lots of money on my face n grooming myself to look pretty. I bet all women in tis world would agree tat every single one of us wanna b pretty. Agree?

It sounds simple than it realli is. I was not aware of wat it truly means. I hav left out sumting which is veri impt and truly defines wat "loving urself" means. It onli dawn onto me recently when I was havin a conversation with my cousin. Still, being the stubborn me, I refuse to take her words seriously. But...if there is a God or an Angel high up in e sky, I believe it wanna me to know tat wat she told me is veri impt n it is this thing tat I have been lackin for e past 20 over yrs of my life. I happened to chance upon this movie "Seducing the Mr Right" 2 nites ago. It is a Korean movie starring e handsome doctor in "My Name is Kim Sam Soon" n another Korean woman whom I hav not seen in any of e Korean dramas I hav watched. It is a movie which is veri close to my heart as I can see myself in e female lead of this movie. Initially, I couldnt believe tat there would b another woman who hav such a similar tinkin as I do towards "Love". As the story unfolds, everythin tat e male lead had told e female lead onli reminds me of wat my cousin hav said to me previously. I began to see n truly understand why it is so impt to love urself n wat my cousin had said is true.

With tat, I told myself tat I hav to love myself more n believe tat I hav my own rights to sae "NO" when there is a need. It is bcos of this veri reason, I became pretty "different". As my mum did sense e change in me, she cant help but feels puzzled over wat is e reason which brought this change. She felt tat I hav bcome more n more fussy with certain things. I can onli say that I do not wanna compromise anymore. I do not wanna b taken for granted for e fact tat I am nice enoff to compromise to anything. I guess it would take sum time for pple ard me to get used to e change in me.

Alrite... I shall pen off here. Time to hit e gym b4 I bcome a fatso. :)
