I am a college student from Hong Kong and I have been sharing my cartoon drawings on social media for over 2 years now. I find inspiration for quotes and drawings from my struggles with emotional issues since my teenage days. 

I hope to spread more encouragement, understanding, and support for people going through similar struggles in their lives. I also want to break the stigma of discussing emotional issues, especially in Hong Kong's society. 

Recently, I have been inspired by my friends and followers to reflect on self-love and self-care so I decided to create a series of drawings on how to love yourself. All of them are hand-drawn. Hope you will like them too!

Be kind to yourself. Be as kind to yourself as you would be to a friend.

We are not able to love others, until we learn to love ourselves, think about your good qualities we all have them !!!

My dad told me once when I was young "you can't love anyone until you love yourself" and it had such a profound effect on me. Years later I reminded him of it and he admitted he heard it watching Oprah with my Mom lol

Sometimes it's important to give yourself credit from just surviving through the day!

Wow, for me this speaks so loud. Everyone I know doesn't think I can be a singer. Thank you for your kind words. <3

Everyone should live their lives how they want to, not how someone else wants them to!
