You should make today a day when you put your own pleasure first in whatever way you deem appropriate; for example, you could treat yourself to a nice meal, go shopping for something new to wear, or spend time with a person who makes you feel secure and happy. Since you are the main character for today, you should make sure that the focus is on you and the things that you require.
Leo
