Who is the most important person in your life? Your mom or your dad. Your best friend that you've known since sixth grade or maybe the one that you made yesterday. You spouse, boyfriend, girlfriend, friend with benefits. Did you name one of them? Okay; so you're wrong. Let me ask you again.

Who is the most important person in your life? The correct answer is that you are the most important person in your life. At some point in everyday, you are alone and when you are alone, you are reduced to one person. You are alone and in that moment, your entire life is centered around you. 

Most of the time, we can be pretty selfish. People in general are selfish; we cannot all be like Mother Theresa. I am not saying that the world revolves around you. You are the most important person in your life -- that doesn't make you selfish. Saying that you are the most important person in your friend/sister/spouse's life is selfish. That's not my point. In those moments during the day, when you are alone, do you love yourself? I mean... do you enjoy your own company? Are you content to be alone with your thoughts or do you turn up the television or the radio so that you don't have to be alone?

I just want you to be your own best friend, because when that happens, you become unstoppable.

catch you later,
Karleigh

"Above anything else, stay true to yourself. Whether that means for you that you like to have blue hair, or you don’t like to drink, or you are attracted to the same sex, or you want to remove yourself from Facebook, or you’ve got 3 different kids from 3 different dads but you know you’re a really good mom, or you cry for a week because your turtle died. Whatever your truth is, stay true to yourself. But be a good person while you’re at it." // Gillian Anderson
