Is it just me, or did January seem to fly by? It didn't really hit me that a new month came until I started seeing Valentine's Day ads everywhere.
I don't really like how Valentine's Day comes with the implication that someone has to shower you with gifts in order to make you feel like you're loved. I especially don't like that, for girls, Valentine's Day is made to be a waiting game for some guy to come court them. That's complete BS to me, and I think that attitude only perpetuates the idea that people are in desperate need of a significant other to make them happy or to make them love themselves.
That being said, February's Lifestyle Challenge is:
be your own valentine.
This month, I challenge you (and myself!) to take the time to truly pamper yourself. Use the holiday of love's theme to your advantage and do something that makes you feel great about yourself! Buy yourself something nice, write yourself a confidence-boosting letter--anything that makes you feel awesome.
Celebrate your existence. You deserve it.
Stay beautiful,
Patricia
