Spending Time With Yourself: The Ultimate Self-Love?

And I realized that I actually had not spent time with just myself in quite a while. And it was both a bit exhilarating and yet unnerving thought. And while it only lasted a total of three days, it really allowed me to realize what a luxury and self-love ritual spending time with yourself really is. Not to take baths and read books and all of the regular stuff we always associate with 'self-love'. But rather just to spend time in your own thoughts, employ zero energy on anything else but yourself.

And although I missed Monika and wished she was with me so I could chat and laugh and eat and sleep with her, I also definitely allowed myself to spend time in my own company. I think most of us - myself included - try to keep people around us to distract us with our own thoughts. And for me, this past week, I really had a chance to converse with myself and it was refreshing and welcome and something I would definitely recommend.
