King Amanullah Khan of Afghanistan (ruled 1919-1929) once gave a public speech in which he said “Islam did not require women to cover their bodies or wear any special kind of veil”. At the conclusion of the speech, to the amazement of those present, Queen Soraya tore off her veil in public.

It’s all about learning how to respect yourself. It takes a while, you may struggle from time to time, but it’s all about you. We are the only ones with 100% power over ourselves, your mind will believe everything you tell it. Make it think positive thoughts. You have multiple choices in this world and you could change something in a day. Nothing good comes out of hating ourselves, but everything good comes out of loving ourselves. I say, if loving yourself is too much, learn to like yourself first. It’s hard to go from constant insulting yourself to constant complimenting yourself. Take it slow, you’ll get there. Distance yourself from the negativity and triggers and surround yourself in positivity and thinks that make you glad you’re alive.
Amazing bathroom.
