Take care ⚠️

I'm currently getting a pedicure, so you know what that means .. Time to write a new post lol. This is the perfect time to write. I'm relaxed and getting pampered. Who doesn't love that ?

Strangely, every time I get the time to pamper myself, I feel soo guilty. Maybe I could have used this money for something more important. Or when I'm struggling right before my next pay, I think "Lawd, I knew I shoulda saved that damn money 😩" . But what's so wrong with pampering yourself? Spending a little money once in a while to make yourself feel like royalty? Not a damn thing. 

My mother calls me every single day (I know, not even joking) and she ALWAYS reminds me, "Take care of you ! You are number 1. You must love to look good" . These are her exact words, and I have  subconsciously lived by them for years- making sure that I get my hair done occasionally, that I buy new clothes here and there and always making sure my make up and nails are done. Don't get it wrong now, because I don't live above my means. 

Someone else from the outside looking in might say that it's all "too much", but honestly I have never cared. I work hard in school and if I am at work, I work diligently. Therefore, I will take care of myself just the same. You should be a priority in your life and nothing else should come before that. When you look good, you feel even better. You were never put on earth just to work until you return to dust, or to stress yourself so often without a break. No one else may ever take care of you , more than YOU

So yes, hit the gym 

Pamper yourself every now and again 

Go places you've never been 

Make memories with the ones you love 

Is it still too much ? No ? I thought so too 😊
