“Love is the reason for everything, so yeah, maybe vague wasn’t the right word. But I feel like if you tell someone to ‘love yourself’, it sounds so simple. But I don’t think many people have actually fully been there. I haven’t for sure. It’s a lifelong journey to fully loving yourself because you have to love yourself at every stage to have the most fulfilling life. In my opinion, to have love for yourself whether things are going perfectly or not, you have to have love and acceptance for that.”
