How much power the word beautiful holds?How many tears,pain,feelings of not being good enough have been playing hide and seek through the curves of these nine letters?
When people will finally see that beauty is not what society projects.Beauty is what makes you feel something,beauty is not a perfect body, a straight nose,not the freaking thigh gap and surely not the vomit your mouth projects just to keep your belly tight.
We create the standards,we are society.
So why are we instead of fighting,following and struggle with what has been thrown at us.
A petite girl is equally gorgeous as the girl with curves,with the girl that sees herself in the mirror and want to hide.
A boy with more weight inside of him is equally worthy as the one with abbs.
We all are different you know,wether it is about our body statistics or our tastes in different things and we all struggle to fit in.
Why is that?Why can't we stand proudly by ourselves, just being us and forget what anyone has to say about it.
No one is perfect and will never be so why the fuck someone feels the need to talk bad about another someone,what makes them think that they have the right to assume things and put labels,firing bullets every time they speak.
Your freckles,your pimples,your characteristics aren't something you should be ashamed of.
It is time to change the rules,it's time to hug ourselves and give kisses to our bodies,yes the ones we neglected cause they made us feel like we don't belong with the rest of the world.
It's time we grab our mirrors smile and say: I AM GOOD ENOUGH AND I SLAY
no more listening to the background noises,no more hiding myself,no more freaking media telling me how i should look,be and act.
From now on i will watch myself in a mirror, or my reflection in the front of shops and i'll finally say: Damn i look GOOD
and flip off anyone who tries to take my confidence and myself away from me again.
