This isn’t a question many people consider very often but it’s an important one. Do you like who you are in general?

#reflection I’m so grateful to myself. Grateful I worked so hard at working on building my sense of self worth, self love + self esteem after I let partners who didn’t deserve my love tear it to shreds.
