“Sometimes even the smallest, or simplest acts of resistance can seem like the hardest. Just remember that all of our struggles are different and that we are doing what we can. There is no ‘right way’ to begin to love ourselves, and there is room for all of us to exist where we are at. If you can’t take action today, there is always tomorrow, next week, next month, etc. Just keep trying, and above all treat yourself with gentle compassion and kindness because the fact that we are even contemplating these things is a powerful act.”
- Majestic Legay
True, sometimes being busy can make it hard to treat yourself but it should definitely be a priority.

So true Laurel, this was a major theme of this year. I had to learn to love myself, to put my needs first. Sometimes it's okay to put self first, doesn't make you bad person. As I told someone recently, it helps no one if you're not strong on your own. How can you be a pillar if you're all crumbly?
