5 Reasons To Learn To Love Yourself
thought catalog

Most people, especially women, have something they dislike about themselves. However, there are many reasons that they should learn to love themselves and see the beauty in themselves. Beauty is not always looks. Beauty is everything that a person is made up of, and more.

1. Confidence Is Attractive

People can tell when you are self-conscious and it often makes them feel uncomfortable, whereas when you are confident they usually see the way you glow with happiness. Confidence attracts others, so you won't be lonely. Being confident always makes others feel confident about you.

2. Loving Yourself Relieves Stress

If you feel good about yourself, you won't always be stressed about whether you look good enough. You will actually have the time to enjoy whatever it is you are doing. Lets be honest, what's not to love about yourself?

3. You Cannot Truly Love Anyone Unless You Learn To Love Yourself

If you can't even treat yourself right, how can others believe that you will treat them right. You cannot care for others if you are in too poor of "health." You have to care for yourself in order to care for others. Part of caring for yourself is loving and believing in yourself, and part of that is feeling beautiful and confident in yourself.

4. When Picking Apart Yourself, You Will Pick At Others Very Harshly.

Say you think you have large ears, you meet another person with the same size ears as you but they have a larger head, you will say to yourself "but they have huge ears," but in reality their ears are perfectly normal. When you pick at yourself, you tend to pick at others. So instead of picking out the things you dislike about yourself pick out the things you like.

5. If You Learn To Love Yourself Day To Day Life Will Be Easier Than Before

If you are happy with yourself, life will simply be smoother. You won't feel as if everyday drags on. You will be able to come at life with a much more optimistic point of view. If you learn to love yourself, life will simply be better.

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
