feel beautiful
A New Leaf 1 year ago

I hate how when I see someone behind my shoulder, across the street, standing next to me, on a billboard, on a TV screen, on a glossy magazine page I find myself saying she’s prettier. Thinner. Taller. And thus, better.

Well tomorrow’s a new day. And when I wake up, I’ll know better. Even though I can’t completely stop comparing myself to someone, I’ll do it based on something different. I’ll judge someone on her actions, her intentions, her attitude, her spirit.

And then I’ll feel beautiful. Not because someone told me so and not at the expense of someone else’s way to loving herself but I’ll do it the one way I know how. Self acceptance.

I hope you can do the same one day. :)
