You Are Just As Special

Never Forget That

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 6 months ago 1 min read
Look after yourself too

“Make someone smile every day,

but never forget

that you are someone too”

Love others

but

love yourself also.

Smiling does so many good things

both mentally and physically.

It is a selfless act

that encourages optimism and joy.

Just remember

to smile at yourself every morning

when you look in the mirror.

You deserve to be treated

with love and kindness,

just as everybody else does.

You are just as important

as the people you care for.

It is lovely to be known

as the person who is always

happy, cheerful and smiling.

You try to be positive

to everyone you meet.

Just don’t forget

to give yourself

that precious self-care time.

Balance is so important here.

It is good

to encourage others to

smile and be

happy in their own lives.

It is just as good

to ‘help ourselves’ to do the same.

When you ‘smile’ at yourself

you are telling the whole world

that you love your life

and

want to share it with others.

You are just as special as everybody else.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

    Agreed! Smiling is the simplest yet meaningful thing you can do and it has the power to turn around a bad day.
