What Beauty Means To Me

Beauty Is Not Just a Reflection; Beauty Comes From Within and the Way You Present Yourself

First, I would like to say you are here for a reason. You’re not here to judge yourself, to look in the mirror and say, “I’m ugly,” or “I’m worthless. No one wants me here.” You’re here because you have something to share, something to give, and something to learn. You deserve love. If you have been told otherwise, those words are false.

You are a beautiful soul. You are important, and I need you to stay alive. If you’re struggling with something heavy, maybe you have been dealing with bullies, people who discouraged you, or maybe you’ve been told you don’t matter. I promise you, you matter. Don’t let anyone say otherwise. Please be kind to yourself. Look in the mirror and say, “I love you.” Or whisper to yourself, “I am worthy.”

Because all those comments you have received were from people who didn’t realize what they were doing. Or maybe they knew and had bad intentions. Sometimes people do things because they think it’s funny, or because they think they will gain popularity or recognition from it. Sometimes they see something that you have that they don’t have. These people could also be hurting.

If you are someone who is scared or doesn’t know how to move forward, I want to help you because you are here to live. You’re not alone in this world. Many people believe that they are not worthy of living or wonder, “What’s the point of living?” Maybe you feel like you have nothing to give. Each person has something unique, and each person’s journey shapes them. I’m not the same as you, and you’re not the same as me. We are different, but we have a life, and we should cherish it and enjoy each moment. Not everyone was allowed to live; some people had it taken away either by abortion, accident, or being born prematurely.

Maybe you’re someone who observes other people’s behaviours, or maybe you’re someone who is quiet. If you are, then you have a lot to share with this world. And I would like to hear you speak. I would like to see you thrive. And mostly, I would like to tell you that your beauty is within. Outside beauty shines when the beauty from the inside is unleashed.

I believe that there is a difference. Beauty is not always viewed by what you look like; it’s how you act. Do you respect yourself? Do you choose not to be provocative? Do you dress elegantly? People will give you what you show them.

If you dress in a way that attracts the wrong attention from men, you will get the wrong attention. Maybe you might feel flattered because, for once, someone is paying attention to you. But it’s the wrong type of attention, and it could lead you to the wrong places.

But if you dress elegantly, cover yourself, and respect yourself, men will come who want to give you the world and treat you like the princess you are. It’s always about how you show yourself and how you speak to others.

I believe that being humble and being kind will attract the right relationships and the right people. So remember, you’re not alone in feeling that you’re not beautiful. But don’t let your definition of how you look from the outside discourage you and make you believe that you are not, because the things you consider ugly or unattractive, others see as beautiful.

So embrace yourself and be confident. You matter, and you are beautiful.
