Nowadays, the phrase "Love Yourself, Laoji" is popular among young people. It means caring for yourself in easy ways.
Many teens feel stressed(焦虑不安) because of schoolwork and daily life. When they feel down, most students often wait for others' help, like their parents or friends. But "Love Yourself, Laoji" tells them a different idea: be your own helper. Self-care doesn't cost much at all. You can buy a cheap snack you like, take a walk after class, or just sit quietly by the window for a few minutes. These small acts can $\underline{\mathrm{cheer you up}}$ easily with little time or money.
This phrase also shows that young people are learning to care about their own feelings and know themselves better. They don't need to always please others or wait for others to love them. So they choose to look after themselves first. When you feel happy and relaxed, you can better face problems in study and life, and even be able to help others around you.
Of course, true self-care doesn't mean being lazy or thinking only about yourself. It's about balancing(平衡) your own needs and daily duties, like finishing homework on time. Maybe "Love Yourself, Laoji" will be out of fashion one day, but its spirit(精神) will stay: $\underline{\quad▲\quad}$.
