"She learned not to be you, but her only, for safety" -brownskingal01

We have all gotten to that stage where we start comparing our self with instagram models and unrealistic beauty, teaching us that we are not good enough and our beauty, the ones that makes us unique and different are not desirable. So we fall in a deep pit, in which no one can save you, fighting for the approval of others until we discover that the key to come out of that dark pit is inside of us, only YOU can change it through self love- brownskingal

I remembered being a carefree child, not worrying wether my feautures where desirable by society or no. Not worrying about having to fix my hair, my body, my imperfections, I was just being me, but when I began to grow and being a teen I started to see the things I didn't like about me, I saw myself as the wrong gene.

Finding peoples aproval on wether I was beautiful or not. Till this day I still not believe that I am beautiful even tho people compliment me. When you scroll though Instagram you see this perfect body shaped models with the perfect face creating me more insecurities.
