22 Heartfelt Insta-Poems Remind You To ALWAYS Love YOURSELF First
Go ahead, give yourself a hug.
Instagram It's all too easy to lose track of what's really important in life. I mean, hell, we're all so preoccupied with getting by day to day, it's not hard to forget about what matters the most.
Happiness — that's the key. Without happiness, what do we really have? A boring job, boring friends, a boring life. Who the hell wants that?! No one in their right mind, that's for sure.
Once you've found happiness, don't let it go. It's not always so easy to find. But the most important step in finding happiness is finding love in yourself. Accepting yourself for who you are and believing that you can be whoever you want to be is highly important. If you're too afraid to be who you really want to be, then you'll never find true happiness.
Forget about what everyone else thinks, just be you.
If anyone knows about the positive affect of loving yourself, it's Simi Fromen. Her poems inspire people to be true to themselves and put themselves first for a change.
She preaches about how impossible it is to make everyone happy all the time, so instead do whatever it takes to make YOURSELF happy! Simi's poems are dripping with motivation to fight for your inner YOU and steer clear of getting swept up in what everyone else expects you to be.
She is also an advocate for helping others heal through empowerment and inspirational words. As a way to help herself heal after a divorce, she started her Instagram page, in hopes that it would be cathartic for her pain, as well as the pain others' were going through.
In her own words, "Writing is my heart and soul spilled on paper. It is art. It is healing and I hope others find comfort and inspiration in my words."
True happiness lies within the love you have for yourself — so let Simi Fromen INSPIRE you with her brutally honest words on self-love.
