So last night I was talking to one of the girls that I see as a younger sister. Her name is McKenna and she is honestly one of the most gorgeous girls on the planet. Like no joke. She's blonde and has the cutest little body, and her face is sculpted by angels haha. She brought up how self-conscious she was, and how she needed to lose weight. I wanted to cry. This girl, who is smart, and funny, and gorgeous, has been programmed to hate herself because her ribs aren't showing through her skin.
It honestly makes me livid how many girls are so beautiful, and absolutely despise the way they look. Who made the rules on what is beautiful? I would really like to know so I can hurt them. Every single person on this earth has SOMETHING about them that makes them gorgeous. Whether it be their looks, or what they've fought through. I just lost my Grandma (I called her Nanny) a couple weeks ago, and she was the most gorgeous woman I ever have and ever will know. Not because she was physically gorgeous, but because she fought so hard for her life. She had cancer 6 times, and she always managed to keep a smile on and stay strong for us. I will miss her more than anything.
But back to my main point, everybody has flaws. Absolutely no one is perfect. If you think you are, you're wrong, and frankly just annoying...go away. So here's what I'm going to do: I wrote down all of my flaws, but along with that I wrote down all of the things that make me beautiful. I encourage all of you to not only embrace what makes you beautiful, but embrace your flaws as well, because that is exactly what makes you, you.
Here is what I think,
I'm not perfect. In any way, shape, or form. I make mistakes. I say the wrong things at the wrong times. I don't think things through. I'm impulsive and rude and far too sarcastic. I make jokes of things that aren't funny at all. I'm afraid to get too close to people. I'm afraid of commitment. I''m terrified of being alone. I'm a walking contradiction. I pretend i'm okay, when in reality, I wish I could just break down and cry. I act so strong and tough in front of people, but i'm one of the most loving and accepting people you will ever meet. I'm emotional, and irrational. I'm afraid of falling, yet I tumble head over heels every time. Despite all of these flaws, I am still beautiful. I manage to make the most of every situation I'm in. I'm overly optimistic, and live my life loving every minute. I take nothing for granted because you never know when it's their (or your) last day. I have curves, and I wouldn't be me without every single one of them. I sing my heart out and dance until I can't anymore. I love everyone and hate no one. I only see the good in people, and do what I can to help everyone. I AM ME. I am absolutely amazing the way God made me. Yes, I have a never ending amount of flaws, but I wouldn't have it any other way. So here is your challenge, acceot me for EVERYTHING that I am, or leave. I will not change for anyone but myself. And one day, I will find my matching puzzle piece.
And again, I IMPLORE you, stop acting like because you don't fit the media's standards, you don't fit anyone's. Raise your standards, because you deserve more. And be confident because YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!
