1. Design your self-care plan for the whole year.

2. Make a self-compassionate letter and make a reflection paper about it.

Dear you,
I know that you fought for too long. You grew as a very strong one.
The struggles you encounter along your way really raised you too well. I
wanted to tell you that nothing is wrong with expressing yourself. Given that
being the eldest requires you to carry all your siblings shoulders, still allow
yourself to be vulnerable.
Continue to be a sunshine to other people. Your dark is fair enough to
stay behind your curtains. This is only a phase, keep in mind that this is all
part of your growth.
Do not be too harsh on yourself. Whenever you feel anxious, and
quitting crosses your mind. Please hold tightly. Time will come and all the
hardships and pain you carry will all be worth it in God’s perfect time.
Always see good in every people no matter how hard the world may
beat you up sometimes. Your younger self is so proud knowing that you
have gone through so many times and still fighting until now.

Love,
Glean

Taking care of yourself requires a lot of patience. There are times that you will
feel a little heavier than the usual but always remember that it is only a phase. We
all have our own battles to fight inside ourselves. I know life may be cruel
sometimes, it may beat you up and test your spirit. There is also time that the fire in
yourself may lost due to extreme battle. But it is part of defining who you are and
who will you become in the future.
The above letter pertains to my inner self. I admit that I have lost my fire this
time. But I am trying my best to regain it. Through the letter, I was able to
communicate myself. Although there is a part of me having a hard time expressing
myself. I am not really good at taking care of my whole well-being. I usually spend
my time over those people who means a lot to me which is my family.
 All throughout the years of my existence, I guess oppressing my emotions
makes me way more capable of living. Even though sometimes I kept questioning
myself, hence, I find it hard to express.
Indeed, no matter how hard it is, do not be harsh on yourself. At the end of the
day, no one is got you but yourself as well. Hardships may come and go.
