The Letter to Anyone and Yourself.

This letter goes to anyone who's been thinking that they're alone, broken-hearted, depressed, and feeling like no one's picking up the phone when you need them the most.

This letter goes to anyone who find curling up in bed drowning in sadness of nostalgia is better than actually breathing the fresh air outside the room.

This letter goes to you, who stumbled upon this writing. This isn't a coincidence, that's universe giving you a hint to wake up and move on, to let yourself go from anything that makes you miserable.

Hi there, I know you're in a really deep cut, I know you've been feeling small, I know you thought you're no longer friends with 'hope', I know you're close to giving up, I know you're about to accept that you'll bring sadness to your way of living.

I've been there, I have once thought that maybe, this sadness of mine won't ever go away and I almost let myself to accept 'sadness' in a wrong way. I thought, maybe it's better for me to live with this scar than having the must to remove it.

But then, out of the desperation notes and letters that's piling up on my desk, a thing or a two crossed my mind. Letting sadness to be within you, is not accepting. It's because you're weak, you're not brave enough to leave what made your eyes tear and your cuts bleed behind, to throw the thoughts in your head that rip you apart. Darling, you're killing your mental slowly.

You're lack of your self-worth awareness. You're too busy figuring out how to move on from anything that's been haunting you, you're too busy hiding from anything that's been chasing you, you're too busy fighting from anything that's been hassling you. Then you feel tired, you feel hopeless, that's nearly the point where you thought maybe you'll just have to accept that you'll never move on. And the only choice you have is to live with those demons in your head.

Meanwhile.. the very first thing to step out of the sadness and the insecurities is to love yourself. Don't push yourself too hard, don't need to buy a How To book. You just need to love yourself more. I know it sounds cliche, but there's a reason why people write about the importance of loving yourself all the time.

Because, it is actually the answer to every alone, broken-hearted, depressed souls' been questioning.

Here, dear You.

Date yourself. I know you've reached the point where the idea of being alone enjoying the grief is better than anything. But until when will you let yourself being overwhelmed by the past, singing to the lyrics of those so related sad songs and stop yourself from being 'you'?

Sweetheart,

say 'Hi' to yourself, when was the last time you had your own quality time with yourself? Quite a time ago, I suppose? Go, it's your reconciliation time with yourself, have a cup of chamomile tea with yourself,  talk about yourself as long, as much as you want, yourself won't get bored anyway.

Date yourself, make love to yourself, send good night texts to yourself, praise yourself, send yourself flowers, send yourself your favorite chocolate, because the only one who can treat you the way exactly you want to be treated is yourself. Be selfish, be un-selfless for a while.

You, you're young, you're bright, you're beautiful, every inch of you is perfect just the way it is.
You, you're about to walk on sunshine, and don't let anyone get in your way. Don't.

You, I know you're feeling lonely, but then, it isn't that bad to be alone. Solitude is a bless, they say. No, being alone isn't that pathetic. Because in the end, no one will be there for you, but you. Everyone's eventually busy with themselves.

And it's good knowing that you're always gonna be there for you, no one else, just you.

Once you get to know yourself, you'll slowly see the real potential in yourself. You won't be feeling that lonely anymore. Because again, it's such a bless knowing that someone will always be there for you, which is yourself.

Get to know yourself better, have a deep conversation with yourself, oh for Goodness' sake, do you even remember your favorite color? Do you even remember those little things that make you happy, like the smell of your Grandma's freshly baked cookies?

The moment you start to admire yourself, write yourself a love letter. Or love letters. Be in love with yourself, no one will be jealous. Instead, you HAVE to be in love with yourself. That matters.

And next time you're feeling lost, just remember, you can always count on someone, which you called, Yourself.

I promise you, you will always be your home, your comfort zone, your source of warmth. You don't need to find those in anyone else, because you'll always have you.

Now please, acquaint yourself. Take a look in the mirror, --whoa, look at those eyes of yours. They glow universe, stare yourself deeply, swim into it.

You'll find a pure soul, a soul that won't hurt you no matter what,

Yourself. Have a moment with yourself.

Cheers,

an encouragement from myself to I,

for you and yourself.
