I think having a sense of humor helps somewhat, maybe feeling okay to be silly once in awhile. In my mind feeling hapoy has a lot to do with accepting one’s self and that is a form of loving yourself as a person.

Now I’m not claiming to be perfect and am far from it but to me trying to be a nice person and being kind, that comforts me and gives me a sense of happiness with who I am trying to be as a person. I think feeling anger and resentment sort of builds up inside a person and that eventually leads to loathing one’s self as a person.

Stop trying to change or better yourself. You’re perfect in your imperfections, any effort to change yourself isn’t being true to yourself. I know I’m gonna catch heat for saying that but, once you stop chasing some imaginary ideal that is making you miserable, you can start accepting yourself as you are and be happy. So acceptance is a big thing. Accept yourself as you are. From there I’d say to surround yourself with love, be it from family, art/music, nature etc. Let the universe love you. You have to believe you’re worthy of love, though, or else you could get all the love in the world and you won’t see it. So yeah, know that you are (probably) worthy of love, accept yourself, and open up

Be patient and kind to yourself. Treat yourself like someone who is in your care. Don’t be afraid to push yourself a little. Love is not always the easy thing.
