Okay my lady readers, listen up! I want you to do something for me...
Step 1: Go to the nearest mirror
Step 2: Smile
Step 3: Say "I AM BEAUTIFUL!"
Thats right. Think back. When is the last time you've done this? It's probably been to long. Girls these days are extremely impressionable and I never really noticed just how impressionable they were until I spent some time with my younger cousin.
She's 12 years old, loves to cheer and play sports, has some pretty sweet grades in school and has a ton of awesome friends. Sounds like a pretty sweet life, right? That's what I thought until I heard her say "Man I have a big stomach! I need some bigger boobs too... *sigh*" Okay, I've never wanted to give someone the "v8 slap" so much in my life. To put it lightly, I had a little talk with her... Is this how the next generation is seeing themselves? Oy vey.
So, to all you out there who think you're not pretty for any reason: SHUT UP! You are. So, do what I told you and repeat the 3 steps as often as it takes for you to believe it, and then keep doing it.
This ends my rant-ish thing for the day.
Until next time,
Live, Love, Laugh
