Prompt;; There are many different kinds of journeys that we will face in the course of our lives; there are the physical journeys where you go from point a to point b, the emotional journeys through grief and loss or the happy emotional journeys of love. Then, there are other types of journeys- the ones of self-discovery and self-acceptance. Arguably, these types of journeys are the longest and most arduous we will encounter in our lives.
Although I have undergone most of these types of journeys in my life so far, the biggest one I have endured is the one of self-love. It took a very long time to complete this journey, and it started just after being separated from my mother at a young age. For the longest time I believed her death had been my fault, and that journey of grief and acceptance kick started a kind of self-loathing where I isolated myself from others, certain that if I allowed anyone else into my life I would lose them.
This self-destructive way of thinking amplified until I had gone into depression. It took many moons to pull myself out of that, and only now am I able to say I am completely loving toward myself and the way I think about myself instead of being negative. What started as just finding one thing I liked about myself, then turned into finding more things which eventually changed my way of thinking.
