You are Beautiful! no matter what the say!

"beauty is in the eye of the beholder" now that's a statement! Everyone is beautiful in their own way. Yes people are shallow; it's impossible not to be! But its not entirely our fault. When we look at magazines and commercials, we always see good looking people ! So if you think about it, society says  if we want to be "beautiful" we have to look like the models and the actor we see on TV and in magazine ads. luckily, some people are not so mean and shallow like others, but it's still programmed in our minds that if you're not "beautiful" you don't belong in society! Now THAT is a tough concept to intake.

I'm not going to lie, I'm a shallow person! and most all of you are probably thinking, "well, I'm not shallow!" and you know what I say? Phooey! Are you sure your not shallow? I've been a bully to kids because of what they look like and other kids have bullied me because i'm not "beautiful". And for some bizarre reason, I ACTUALLY believe it! and pretty sure this has happen to ALL of you before. The problem is that when I was little, me and my friends were ALL the same. No butts, no boobies! I even had guy friends and we all use to hang out and have fun. Now, all my friends grew ginormous butts and boobs, while I didn't grow as much. All those guys friends I use to hang out with stopped talking to me and actually "went out" with my other friends! and those so called friends didn't talk to me anymore. I decided to keep my head in the books instead of my looks. Sometimes I think it would've been easier if I actually grew a body along with my "friends" because the sad truth is that society will never change! But as it stands I have friends who accept me for who I am, and love who I am on the inside and not what I look like. hopefully one day, those who believe in "substance over beauty" will overpower those who believe that beauty is all about your looks.

P.S- did you know that a rose is a great representation of inner beauty?
