“Be nice to yourself. It’s hard to be happy when someone is being mean to you all the time.” – Christine Arylo

In case this is something that you need to hear today … Remember to be nice, and speak kindly, to yourself.

Yes, you’ve made some mistake. Yes, it’s true you aren’t perfect.

There are things you could do better. You could make a greater effort.

But the fact is, you still try – despite everything you’re facing.

All the heartache and the struggles

The dark memories and the triggers.

That is no small feat at all.

It’s been awful – yet you’ve tried.

You should show yourself compassion.

Please be nice to yourself.
