A Promise To Myself (Promises I made To Myself During My Recovery From Depression)

I promise to be confident I promise to be true I promise to not be so hard on myself I promise to start new I promise to not call myself ugly I promise to not fall apart I promise to cry when I’m happy I promise to be strong I promise to not be selfish I promise to be myself I promise to be my own kind of beautiful I promise not to be jealous of anyone else I promise to always smile I promise to be sweet I promise to make good decisions I promise to be healthy I promise to always hope I promise to not give up I promise to be a good friend I promise to not call myself a fuck up I promise to be honest I promise to shine I promise to fight to the end I promise to protect what’s mine I promise to not call myself fat I promise to just relax I promise to believe in myself I promise to ignore what’s being said behind my back I promise to do my best I promise to love unconditionally I promise to live like there is no tomorrow I promise to not give up on me
