See, the world is cruel. The world is ugly. The world will tell you time and time again that you're not good enough. The world will tell you that in order to be "pretty" or "beautiful" that you have to be a size zero and have flawless skin. The world will tell you that you have to have the perfect body shape, perfect hair that curls or straightens to look like a Pantene commercial. They will tell you that in order to be beautiful, you have to look just like those Victoria Secret models.
Forget the world for a second and listen to me. The weight on a scale is NOT what makes you beautiful. The $500 pair of designer jeans and that $1200 pair of Jimmy Choo pumps do NOT make you beautiful.
What makes you beautiful is the way YOU see yourself. What makes you beautiful is when you can look yourself in the mirror and remind yourself that no matter what the world says, YOU ARE good enough. When you see yourself as beautiful, the world around you will see you as beautiful. When you are beautiful on the inside, it shines outward. Internal beauty extends to outward beauty. If you have outward beauty, good for you, but that only goes as far as the eye can see. When people can see into your soul, and they think THAT is beautiful, you have achieved true beauty. So be truly beautiful. Be the kind of beautiful that makes people want to be more like you. Be the kind of beautiful that makes people realize what true beauty is.
It is so sad when I come across a person who thinks that they are not beautiful because they don't look like the people on the front of a tabloid. NEWSFLASH: Thats not real. Those people are fake.
So take time and really think about what kind of beautiful you're trying to achieve.
Here's a little video clip from one of my favorite people on this planet: Hope this makes you smile a little bit.
