Self esteem...
“
One
day I decided that I was beautiful, and so I carried out my life as if I
was a beautiful girl. I wear colors that I really like, I wear makeup
that makes me feel pretty, and it really helps. It doesn’t have anything
to do with how the world perceives you. What matters is what you see.
Your body is your temple, it’s your home, and you must decorate it.

How to...
“Get stuck. Stay in one place your whole life. Always order vanilla
even though the menu is four pages long. Become the type of person who
sends back lattes. Save up your money for a plasma TV instead of a plane
ticket. Talk a lot about things you know nothing about. Have an affair
with someone you don’t even find attractive. Refuse to forget your ex.
Make it impossible for yourself to do anything without remembering that
you used to do it with them. Hug your knees under the sheets and think
about how safe you felt when they held you at night. Remind yourself
daily of how empty you feel. Find new ways to make yourself sad. Get
drunk all the time. Consider no Saturday night, national holiday or
extended happy hour complete without a vodka-induced breakdown. Graduate
college but keep drinking like you’re still in it. Notice that cheap
beer tastes watery and stale when you drink it alone but drink it
anyway. Look at old Facebook photos wasted and wonder where everyone
went. Never drink. Never do anything that could potentially be “bad” for
you. Treat your body like the temple it is and say no to carbs, yes to
wheatgrass, go to bed at ten sharp and turn down cake on your birthday.
Take fifteen different dietary supplements. Monitor carefully. Succumb
to nothing. Miss out on everything. Compare yourself constantly, to
everyone. Allow the standards of image-obsessed, age-obsessed culture to
make you feel decrepit at 25. Scroll through skinny girls on Tumblr
feeling wistful and inadequate. Pull at the skin on your hipbones,
stomach, and underarms in the mirror. Sigh a lot. Sigh all the time.
Don’t fall in love with anyone or anything. Put an impenetrable wall
between yourself and other people. Add a fire-breathing dragon and eight
yards of barbed wire. Be suspicious of everyone’s motives. Hold grudges
long after you’ve forgotten what for. Fall in love with everyone and
everything. Run after the next best thing like it’s a bus you’re
perpetually late for. Throw your heart into every other stranger’s hands
and be genuinely surprised to be hurt. Refuse to learn. Refuse to ever
learn.”
