TO TREAT YOURSELF

I've been thinking a lot about the meaning of "treating yourself" lately. It pops up everywhere today. I think the word, treat, is being abused. Like, you've been regularly exercising lately and eating healthy so just one night you're going to "treat" yourself with a small piece of cake, chocolate or a glas of wine. But what happends next day? You punish yourself for it and make yourself exercise harder. How is that a treat? Not saying everyone does it but there's a lot of people out there that actually do.

I use the word treat a lot, but not exactly like everyone else use it. I use it to everything that I do that makes me happy and I DO NOT punish myself the next day for it! I like to live my life not hold it back. You do only live once!
I believe you have to treat yourself everyday with life. This particularly day is never coming back. Ever. It is and forever will be GONE. Will you remember when your older that you eat chocolate that one night? Or that you slept in that morning that you'd planned to start the day at 6 am? No! If you for some reason do you have a memory like an elephant, you have two options, 1. You're unice 2. You're an actual elephant. So, you either eat, sleep, live your life and do what makes you HAPPY for that day (that IS to treat yourself) or you keep on treating yourlself (with the society's meaning of the word) and there is a chance you will end up remembering the day as a not to good day.

Go for what makes you happy.
If you get happy by losing weight, go for it. Just don't let that be the only source of happiness that turns into a disease.
If you get happy by eating, go for it. Food is not a "treat" it's a treat.
If you get happy by having the evenings free, go for it. Plan your day so you can drop everthing in the evening.
If you get happy by eating chocolate when you have your period, go for it. Chocolate is actually good for you while having your period. Don't believe me? Google it!
If you get happy by taking a glas of wine by the end of the day, go for it. Just don't get a drinking problem.
If you get happy by eating a snicker for snack, go for it. You won't die.
If you get happy by quiting your job, go for it. You weren't happy when you were there anyway.
If you get happy by traveling, go for it. Save money and just travel wherever you want. You don't always need that much money to go somewhere.
If you get happy by singing, go for it. (You don't have to become famous to be able to sing.)
If you get happy by having a busy day, go for it. Stuff you're calender with things.

Treat youself with life and things that makes you happy.
You'll be so much happier if you plan after things that makes you smile.
