Girl, You're Amazing Just The Way You Are

Hello there lovelies,

I see so much negativity everyday. So much of it comes from women, and is directed towards themselves, specifically their bodies. Not a day goes by where I don't hear someone say "If only I wasn't so fat", "If only I had bigger boobs", "If only I was taller/shorter/curvier/skinnier/prettier". I can't help but think about all the energy that is wasted everyday on hating ourselves. More and more I am discovering that loving myself is a decision that I make. On any given day, I can either be upset that I'm not Kate Moss, or I can be ecstatic that I am Stacey instead. I can work on disliking my curves, or I can work on embracing them. I can hate my scars, or I can love them.

I'm getting pretty good at loving myself on most days now, and I know you can do it too. You are all beautiful just the way you are. I hope that you all know you are amazing, because I know you are.

"When I see your face
There’s not a thing that I would change
Cause you’re amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you’re amazing
Just the way you are."

Bruno Mars - Just The Way You Are.

Until next time, xo.
