I want to tell you that your beautiful, inside and out. but I think lately I've come to the realization, that the only beauty I care about, comes from within. Now my voice may not be the loudest, and I really hope that it is not drowned out, because I want to tell you that being judged for something you are born with is a disadvantage for us at all Also, please stop telling me that "I know beauty doesn't matter.". Because, if it didn't matter then why to advertisers make millions every year selling women makeup. Why does society try to sell me this illusion of the perfect woman? If our country focused less on our apperance then there would be a lot less self-hatred and much higher self-esteem and so much less eating disorders So I want to start a resolution, no more telling someone their beautiful, just based on appearance. If I want to tell someone they are beautiful, only it's because I know that their actions, and decisions, and personality, are really truly beautiful. So I wanted to start with you.
