When I was typing a birthday message for my best friend earlier today, I noticed something significantly different from this one and the ones I sent her in the previous years…. For a very long time, no matter how short the message is, it will always include a sentence that says ‘hope _insert ex bf treats you well’ or ‘hope you find someone who loves you very soon’. And this year, I unconsciously did not include any of those types of relationship-related wishes.
Because you don’t need to find someone who loves you to make you happy or you don’t need a guy who treats you well to make you feel worthy. We are our own source of happiness and we are our own priority. I’m not saying to give up love or to stop finding the right guy, but this is a birthday wish we are talking about. To celebrate you coming into this world and achieving great things! And it’s time to focus on self-love, self heal and to wish people a ‘Happy Birthday and I hope you love yourself more everyday!’
