Instead of change this or that or everythign about me, I want to work on accepting the things that make up who I am.
Personality quirks, crazy relatives, daily struggles, etc.
This doesn't mean I will let myself go downhill, but self-acceptance will help with my mental health.

Not just accept yourself, but LOVE yourself.

I don't know. I'm not there yet. The saying to "love yourself" irks me because it sound selfish.

No, and it's not gross either. It doesn't mean you are IN LOVE with yoursself. It means you care about yourself, are proud of yourself, and commit to taking care of yourself.

I asked God to give me a verse for you. I generated a verse ONCE and got this for you.
1 John 3:2-3
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

I will try this too. I'm too self-critical.
