As a child, I was insecure and extremely shy. It was to the extreme where in elementary, I would wet myself because I was so embarassed to ask to go to the bathroom! Ohmigosh, I can't believe I just admitted that. Anyway, I remained that way until about the age of 14! Then my dad challenged me to treat the world how I want to be treated. Friendships and social situations soon became easy to me, and I would never go back! My point is this:
Girls, please don't be afraid to be yourself! You are a unique creation of God and that is something to be very proud of! People will resect you and love you for being open and friendly toward others. There really isn't a more beautiful way to live your life than to live it in LOVE! (Which are also, by the way, commandments of God to love others as yourself and love God with everything you are.)
This is one of my favorite songs right now, listen to it.The chorus really stresses what i'm trying to say
let me know what you think!
More Beautiful You - Jonny Diaz
Little girl fourteen flipping through a magazine
Says she wants to look that way
But her hair isn't straight her body isn't fake
And she's always felt overweight
Well little girl fourteen I wish that you could see
That beauty is within your heart
And you were made with such care your skin your body and your hair
Are perfect just the way they are
There could never be a more beautiful you
Don't buy the lies disguises and hoops they make you jump through
You were made to fill a purpose that only you could do
So there could never be a more beautiful you
Little girl twenty-one the things that you've already done
Anything to get ahead
And you say you've got a man but he's got another plan
Only wants what you will do instead
Well little girl twenty-one you never thought that this would come
You starve yourself to play the part
But I can promise you there's a man whose love is true
And he'll treat you like the jewel you are
So turn around you're not too far
To back away be who you are
To change your path go another way
It's not too late you can be saved
If you feel depressed with past regrets
The shameful nights hope to forget
Can disappear they can all be washed away
By the one who's strong can right your wrongs
Can rid your fears dry all your tears
And change the way you look at this big world
He will take your dark distorted view
And with His light He will show you truth
And again you'll see through the eyes of a little girl
