You have to love yourself or at least love some things about yourself. What are they?

I like to believe I'm really fair. I don't care if I end up in a bad position for this, I always try to judge things with an impartial mindset.

    ...But I like my hair and face, I think I'm really pretty but I want to wear hijab because of its value and importance. I like that I care about others and try not to be offensive 😊
    I would say I'm a great friend and have good humor.

    From one Muslim girl to another: It's alright if you are having difficulty wearing hijab, it sometimes takes a little time to get used to the fact that our hair, the part of us that we often consider the prettiest, will be covered. But insha'Allah you'll be able to do it ❤️. There's a really good thing that I once heard, about why we wear hijab: Where do we find diamonds and pearls? In shells, or deep in rock. Hijab is like the shell or the rock, that hides a precious and valuable treasure.

    i love that i’m getting more and more confident in my own skin and the more i grow, the more i love myself. sure, i go through some bad days just like everybody else, but i no longer feel the need to change myself for someone else. my body, my choice! anyways, who cares if i’m not perfect??? not me!! :)

    I think for me it's the fact that I always try to learn and grow, even though I'm an adult. I know so many grown people that firmly believe that they know everything just because they've reached a certain age. I know I'm far from perfect and I make a ton of mistakes but I try to work with that and become a better person every day.

    A lot of stuff, im very vain. I'd say the single best thing about me is that I love other people and care about pretty much everyone i meet. I'm also pretty good at mental health stuff, so I try to make myself a safe space for people who are struggling.

    My sense of justice. I am slow to anger, almost never lose my temper, never resort to violence. I always stand up for the little guy, no matter how big the opponent (including money-wise, or rank-wise). Even though I feel stressed out by bullies I stand up to them, because I know how it felt to be bullied. No-one does it on my watch without getting justice meted out. Sometimes they won't know it was meted out, but they will know that they have to work elsewhere for some reason. Always stand up for justice, and for whoever is downtrodden.

    I'm pretty good at standing up for myself and what I believe, as well as usually being confident in whatever situation I'm in. I'm very connected to my culture, and that often shows in my dressing style, but this causes me to stick out like a sore thumb in the country that I'm currently living in. People dress very brightly in my culture, but here they dress dull and I often get looks when I walk into the room.
    Be confident in yourself, no matter what you're wearing hold your head high since you look awesome!!

    That's actually so true! If you really wear exactly what you want and not only act, but feel extremely confident, there's no way I won't find it nice, even if personally I hate the clothes.

    The fact that I am always able to see both sides and/or can put myself in someone's shoes (position). My family says I'm too nice and people take advantage of me. But I prefer to think the best of someone & maybe be disappointed, than assume outright that others are going to hurt me and keep them at arms length. Most people live up to your expectations, so thinking well of them usually means good things.

    Um. Ngl I sat here thinking for ten minutes, but, um, I like that I'm good with animals - especially cats, dogs, birds, and horses. And, um, I like how I can imitate female voices/animal noises fairly accurately! I also like how my strange mind can play entire movies I've seen down to the last background detail and piece of dialogue, or make up my own. I play movies in my head for hours before I go to sleep.

    That I can honestly say my family, friends, and (most) coworkers are genuine, honest, helpful people! I have worked hard to surround myself with individuals like these, and it is paying amazing dividends. I no longer worry about whether or not some members of my circle really care about me or not, whether they truly appreciate me or some material aspect I possess, and it is quite liberating. I suffer from Bipolar II, and whether I am in the depths of depression or at the peaks of feeling great, I have a trustworthy network or support everywhere I look! Feels great!

    That I’ve come through some hard times stronger and with the knowledge of how to help others going though similar things. Lost my Mum in my teens, my Dad died not long after. Years later got dumped after 24 years with someone. Turned everything around…studied, traveled alone (even though it was so scary at first due to anxiety) and started a little business. Good luck and love to anyone else out there doing the same :)

    I relate so bad to it. Growing up I've always been that kind of person who can easily get along with anyone, since i always try to find the common interests. However, in my case, that backfired a little, because now I feel like I don't have a real and deep connection with anyone outside my family. Somehow, even though I never changed who I was, I got so invested in making everyone feel comfortable around me that I forgot the fact that I deserved that too. All that to tell you, don't do like I did, connect to people even if that reduces the amount of friends you have. I really hope you are happy and that what I'm saying does not make sense to you at all :)

    What I like most about myself is...the person I used to be. I am currently struggling with a major self-esteem and depression issue, and it's brought to light in my mind the slow and small changes that low-level depression over the course of a decade or more has caused. I used to be vibrant, to have fun, to smile widely and laugh with abandon. Now I have to come to terms with how much I have missed out on over the years and how I am not the parent that the kids want to come to for play & jokes. And try to salvage the rest of the time I have with them, I guess? I wish I felt hopeful that I could get back to that person. I miss her, too. She's been trapped for years, but I know she's still in there. I just need to find my way back to her. She was a lot of fun.
