Sometimes we are too busy to focus on the outside world instead of ourselves, too busy to help others and forget our needs. I have been drawing and posting on Instagram for some years, using cute and fun doodles to remind all of us that we deserve love and joy.
Whatever day you are having, I hope you remember there is a Soolooka in your heart.
Make self-care and self-love a habit, and practice it every day. Love yourself 1% more each day, it adds up.

Even we practise self-love, we choose positivity, sometimes we get hurt, and we still love. If you feel like you can’t love now, have faith, you will love again.
If you think tears are bad, probably you haven’t noticed the growth the tears bring to your heart.
How can you see clearly who you are if you always doubt yourself? And with all the emotions. But you are more than you think you are, allow yourself to see the true beautiful you.
That inspires me so much to keep going in life and believe in myself!
Sometimes bad mood visits with an invitation, it may stay for a while or maybe long, BUT it will go away.
How often do we let self-blame to stop us from moving on? Forgive yourself and be free.
Unfortunately sometimes we can listen to those negative feelings too much x
I'm kind of obsessed in trying to help others, even ones that have wronged me. Some people think it's my best trait, but then I don't have the power or the confidencde to actually help. And I NEVER do it for myself. I don't know how to change.
Are you too busy focusing on others that we forget that you need your own attention too? Always remember to love ourselves
@geoffrey sounds like you had a bad experience with a narcissist at some point in your life. Not everyone is that way. There are people that will genuinely love you and want to help you through your hard times. The way you speak to others and mostly yourself is what your actions will be. Be careful which words you choose to let out.
Are you letting others’ comments, expectations, discouragement or stories to shape your future? Let go of those and create your own desired reality.
Because we have choices, we won’t feel trapped. Maybe not all the choices are good ones, at least we know we will pick the best one at the moment.
The process is not always an easy one, you may even think it will never lead you anywhere but struggle and regret. Have faith, trust yourself and trust the process, everything will be OK.
This one is near impossible for a sufferer of BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder)
you should be at the top of your priority list! take care of yourself!!
Everyone has the magic power to make a thought grow, make sure you choose the thoughts that make your life better.
It seems easier to give love to others than ourselves, let’s give more love to ourselves, we deserve love.
Self-love is a journey, it’s the willingness to take care and love yourselves, it’s saying no to what you don’t want, it’s the acceptance of yourself even you made mistakes
I wrote a comment then deleted it, because i am a coward and knew there would be people who will take it the wrong way. If you need help, please ask and seek it from trained professionals. If you had the misfortune of meeting health professionals and people in your lives that dismiss your mental illness and loneliness, I'm sorry. Keep trying to communicate your pain, try to understand the biologically and physiological components behind it, and make whatever changes you can to improve yourself, your mood, and etc... There are free and reliable research on pubmed you can read to try to understand a bit more. There is no drug, no treatment, no one person, or an instant moment that cures depression and/or feelings of loneliness/inadequacy/loss. There's only so much friends, family, and the internet can do for you. Soolooka used her time and emotional energy to create beautiful artwork, hoping to bring a bit more light into this world. Thank you Sooloka, and the people who commented.
The changes don't need to be grand. Just things that you're capable of doing now, that will bring you slightly closer to the objective. Reminding yourself to think a little more positively, be a little more empathetic, even once a day counts. I mention the research papers because they are (1) resources if you aren't interested in pictures or need more information, and to (2) point out how daunting it is for Soolooka to capture all that in her artwork.
