Are you your own best friend?

Listen, I have lots of besties that I would do absolutely anything for. But my all-time, forever bestie will always be myself. And that's okay! In fact, that's fantastic. How can you expect to be a loyal friend if you can't even be a loyal friend to yourself? It's actually not easy to be your own bestie. I constantly have to remind myself not to speak to myself like that because I would never say my bestie is looking like a cow. It is too easy to speak to yourself in that way; you are your own worst enemy. But not anymore! Now it is time to send yourself some memes, LOL with every part of you, and enjoy the time spent with you. If you enjoy your own company, you're never really alone. So LOL with me, myself, and I with these memes!

My mom used to always catch my dad talking out loud to himself. My mom would ask him what in tarnation is he doing? And he would just say, “if you can't talk to yourself, who can you talk to?" And he is so right. You know what helps me the most when my mind is racing with a million thoughts and I have to do a million things but it feels impossible to organize? I start talking to myself out loud. “I have to pack for my trip. But Elna, don't forget you have to eat those leftovers tonight or they'll go bad, so take a break and eat. Wait, did I even eat today? Yes, you did. You had that yogurt earlier. Right, right… I can't forget to pack socks this time.” You see what I mean? That, surprisingly, clears my thoughts right up! It could help you too! Share these memes with yourself as a start.

When sending memes to your friends, aren't you the one who laughs at it first? You have to claim it LOLable and worthy to send to your friends before actually DMing it. So doesn't that mean you already LOL with yourself? What is so bad about wanting to hang with me, myself, and I sometimes? Alone time is very important! And you can use that alone time by laughing at memes that you, yourself, and… you like! Hopefully, these memes help you bond with yourself and better understand yourself. Strangers aren't the only people getting to know you, you are constantly learning about the new and improved, recently evolved you.
