Self-love

In 2017, I graduated from secondary school with flying colors, fast-forward to getting admission, I didn't get admission for years.

Still haven't.

It was very depressing, I mean my classmates were getting admission and everyone keeps asking me, what school are you now, what level are you now..blah blah.. sometimes I'll lie, sometimes I just keep quiet. Silently feeling left out, stagnant and irrelevant. I'd compare my self to a whole lot of of people, my classmates, actresses that are my age and a lot others and most times I felt like that should be me

But I realized

My life is like a special story, different from anyone else's.

Sometimes, we look at others and feel like we should be like them, but that's not true. Don't compare yourself to others because your path is unique.

Instead Celebrate your progress and keep moving forward


You should be happy about the good things you've done, even the small ones. It's like cheering for yourself. And just like a rocket goes up 🚀, you should keep going and getting better.

After realizing that I choose to love and be kind to me—#SelfLove is like being a good friend to you. So, enjoy your journey, be proud of what you've done, and keep going! 😊

I am So proud of me
