In the words of Martina McBride – This one is for the girls.More and more these days society pushes for girls and women to be pencil thin and just right. Here are a few words of wisdom – you are perfect just the way you are! Women and girls need to be happy with who they are. So you are not the perfect size 4 or 6 – big deal. You are you, you are the essence of perfection that the universe intended you to be. It maddens me and saddens me to see a good portion of our female society literally killing themselves to be “perfect”. They are already perfect – in exactly the way they are intended to be. So here are a few words from me that I sincerely hope fall on the ears of the girls and women struggling with societies view of the “perfect body”.
Wear clothes that fit you and don’t worry about the number. Too many people are hung up on the number tagged to the back of their jeans. It is just that – a number. Someone at some point decided to assign a number to a specific size of jeans, which turns out to not be all that specific at all. When you stop letting the world dictate what you should be able to fit into and start wearing the clothes that actually fit you will feel so much better about yourself. Seriously- does anyone feel good and comfortable when they are uncomfortable because the jeans or shirts they are wearing don’t fit? Nope – I have not met a single person that finds this to be comfortable. Stop worrying about the number because when you wear what fits you exude beauty – it literally pours from you. Why? Because you are comfortable.
Take the time to look in the mirror each day and repeat all that is wonderful about you. When you believe in your natural born beauty – other people will too. It is the natural flow and ebb of things. You say this is easier said than done – maybe – but so completely worth it. I have met women who are not your standard bikini model and they are beautiful. They wear what fits and what suits them and their beauty just follows them around. Size is just a number – a number that you should not worry about.
I can not say it enough – you are absolutely beautiful just like you are.
Be proud of you – you are exactly what you were meant to be. Don’t allow society to dictate your size, personality or anything else. Eat healthy, get some exercise and enjoy being who you are.
