I am a total quote person.
I find inspiration & such truth in so many & I really try to apply them to my life,
Something I have realized is that I am really pretty good at liking myself.
That sounds really arrogant at first but if you really think about it do you actually like yourself?
Do you like who you are & what you've become?
I'm that girl who loves to go on walks by myself.
Treat myself to coffee or lunch.
Go to the movies.
Whatever really.
I have never minded hanging with myself.
For a while I never thought it was out of the ordinary until I learned most people in our society have no clue how to love themselves.
Well I want to share ten things about myself I really like & love.
I want you to do the same. Maybe you can come up with 20 or maybe 3 or even maybe 1.
But I challenge you to find things you love about yourself & be insanely okay with that.
{1}
I love my eyes. They are blue like the ocean and I love them!
{2}
I love that I'm loud.
{3}
I love that I don't feel guilty for eating sweets. Life is short. Enjoy it.
{4}
I like my curves. I'm still learning to love them but for the most part I do like them because I feel very feminine.
{5}
I love my freckles.
{6}
I like that I have opinions & I am okay sharing my thoughts with others. I have no fear of communication.
{7}
I like that I love to travel & explore this beautiful world.
{8}
I like that I love playing dress up & wearing make-up & being fancy but I love that I am okay to be bare-faced & wear workout clothes.
{9}
I like that I have become more of a private person. I am comfortable enough not having to prove my life through social networking.
{10}
I love that God gave me such a beautiful temple I strive to treasure it everyday.
I encourage you today to learn to like yourself.
To believe in yourself & that you will allow God to show you the beauty He has given you.
We are all unique and special & it's a shame more people don't realize how amazing they really are.
Love Forever,
Chel Chel
P.S. I am still wanting to do a beaty giveaway. I still check my blog often even though currently I am not writing as often. I am going to try & write twice a week to really get my thoughts out during this season of my life. Follow me on Bloglovin. At 30 I will be doing a giveaway. I am at 22 now =)
To all of you who do read, I appreciate you.
It's been a few weeks since I've blogged & I really never meant for that to happen.
I went to blogging five days a week to three.
Then from three to about two but usually one.
Then it went to one every other week.
I have been reflecting A LOT lately.
I have really been discovering who I am & what I want out of life.
I know right now where I am is not all I want.
Marriage & friendships aside everything else I would like to change.
I know there is more to life than this & surely God hasn't forgotten about me.
Sometimes I think He has though.
I'm down here writing SOS in the sand waving my hands up to the big clouds desperately trying to get His attention & screaming, "Help me! This can't be a part of the plan!"
Oh, but it is.
This season of breaking me into a million pieces & wanting to rip my hair out is a part of the process.
You see Jesus needs to break me first before He can use me for His glory.
He is reminding me I am not in charge & I have to trust Him.
Oh that word trust how I loathe you.
I have become very bitter to that word.
I'm learning though & in process I am angry.
It hurts me sometimes that people make me feel like I am not allowed to be angry with God or anyone for that matter.
I AM allowed to feel angry towards God & to people who hurt me.
This doesn't mean my walk with God is falling apart it means I'm learning & trying to understand & trying to TRUST.
Something I have a very hard time doing.
I am letting God hold me right now even though I don't want to be.
I am learning & I need that freedom to do so.
For now that includes not updating my blog as often.
It includes me using my time to learn, grow and reflect.
"I'm trying Lord. Help me to trust you & your plan for my life."
Love Forever,
Chel Chel
