What you need is self-love, not romantic love

The sun set in Laos

This is my 51 st day in Laos, and I finally realized the biggest I have to learn in my life.

When I woke up, the first idea popped up in my mind wasn’t about work or the sorrow of leaving my comfortable bed.


I need self-love and self-respect, not romantic love💗.

I need self-love and self-respect, not romantic love💗.

I need self-love and self-respect, not romantic love💓.

This sentence played for three times in my mind. Although my mind had just began its morning routine, it was chewing on this simple yet important sentence. It was an epiphany🤯!!!

I suddenly realized the problems and troubles that happened to me was caused by the lack of self-love and self-respect. Even though I am living in a bigger house and have more freedom in my life, I haven’t fully got rid of my unhealthy habit. For instance, when I was sick, I didn’t listen to my body and went to work with horrible stomachache😫, headaches🥶 and diarrhea🤢.

Ironically, even though I tried very hard to suppress the pain, I surreandered to my body before the end of the working hour. I left the office at 3pm and went on enjoying my “diarrhea journey🌊🌊🌊” in my cozy apartment.

A few days later, I recovered, but I was exhausted. And I encountered some unpleasant things that tore my heart apart (When I figured out my crush lied to me about being single). However, after all these events, I learned the biggest lesson for me is how to listen to the voice in my heart and follow my intuition. If I know how to respect my feelings and ego, I probably wouldn’t fall in love with the wrong person again.

At this moment I may not be able to treat myself as good as possible. But I can foresee that I will be the person that treat myself the best in this world🌍.

So how is your thought on self-love? Share you opinions!😀
