Love What You Love
The act of self acceptance allows us to truly see ourselves and be comfortable with who we are. It means being willing to confront our innermost thoughts and desires, even if they make us feel uncomfortable. Instead of ignoring these feelings, we should embrace them and ask ourselves why we enjoy them and what they say about our true character. This type of self discovery and expression can lead to insights about our deepest desires, which may be outside of societal norms. But by owning and embracing our individuality, we can truly get to know our authentic selves.
