A Break Up Letter To The Person Who Criticizes Me The Most

I am done with you, you as in the little voice in my head.

A Break Up Letter To The Person Who Criticizes Me The Most
Kaitlyn Moore

Good freaking bye. Goodbye.

Goodbye to secretly crying in fitting rooms. Goodbye to wearing clothes that are too big for me. Goodbye to looking in the mirror and not seeing what I like. Goodbye to saying, "I don't love myself."

I am done with you. You as in the little voice in my head telling me that I don't look good enough, I should be different, or that I should change who I am.

It is sad that this voice in my head is the ONLY voice controlling my life. I don't care what my friends think I look like. I don't care what social media thinks I look like, I don't care what the most gorgeous man in the whole world thinks I look like.

All that matters is what I think about myself, and that sh*t needs to stop.

The self-hate will stop. The uncomfortableness will stop. The photo editing will stop.

I am literally the only person in the world who can control my emotions and what I think about myself. SO why not make it positive? Who would honestly rather live their lives hating themselves and criticizing themselves, rather than happy and care-free?

You are your biggest critic, understandable. But you are also your only best friend. You should only be living for YOU.

Why are you living for other people?

Here's a tip. If you feel like you are posting just so other people can see and talk, just make them unfollow you.

Easy as that.

Now, who are you posting for?

Your. Self.

You can only love yourself before you love anyone else. Stop trying to convince yourself that you know what self-love is when you're mentally beating yourself up every day.

Strive for bliss.

Bliss is complete happiness without any doubt, it is seeing love in everything you see.

Strive for it.

Love yourself, and you will feel love everywhere.

Xo.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
