The Day I Discovered Me
I write not as someone who has great academic merits bestowed on her but as a humble, fragile girl, who for most of her life has struggled with self-love. This deficiency has taken me to many dark places. It has caused me to act out of fear and make decisions that are fear-based instead of making ones which were right and that caused me to experience many chaotic moments. This lack of self-love has led me to pursue one-sided love affairs because I felt that I was not able to be loved on my own merit because there really wasn't anything special about me, so I had to buy love and work very hard at trying to make people love me.
