How do I truly love myself?

@Nanori agreed. Understand that no one is perfect so it’s normal that you aren’t perfect either. Know that many human beings have lived over thousands of years and that likely there were thousands like you too. TV and magazines TRAIN for years to look and sound perfect. The photographers I know love bragging about how it is the photographer who makes the Subject (model) look appealing. Tap into that which you do that makes you happy and build on that... spend time doing what you love

@Mindful true
tho I meant to free yourself from feeling the guilt

@Nanori there’s a time to mourn our mistakes if they’ve hurt us or others. But again, no one is perfect. If you e learned, then forgive yourself just as the way you would forgive someone else. There’s a saying that it is only possible to forgive others when we Can forgive ourselves, and the opposite is the same, if we want to forgive ourselves we have to be willing to forgive others. Are you holding on to some past resentments of others?
