Real.
The world tried to tell me that I needed to be more of this, have better that and that I wasn’t not enough of this other stuff.
You know what?
I don’t care what they think about who or what I should be.
Their opinion of how I should look or what I need to change doesn’t suit me at all.
I never really listened anyways.
I’m never going to care what fake people chasing pretend dreams in an imaginary world for ridiculous reasons have to say.
Yes, my body isn’t perfect.
I’ve got dimples, scars, too much of this and not enough of that.
It took me a long time, a lot of tears and a healing journey to be able to say one thing:
“I’m okay with how I look.”
Sure, I may still see all the things I want to improve and perhaps I’ll always be a little harder on myself than I should be..
But I’ve learned to start embracing all of myself, even the parts that used to frustrate me.
I’m not perfect and I’m never going to be, and that’s okay.
Perfect isn’t a thing and I’m more interested in improving the parts of me that matter most: my heart, my mind and my soul.
If someone cares more about how I look than who I am on the inside, then they’re not one of my people.
It’s taken me a long time to tune out the critics, haters and people that don’t matter..
But I’m getting there.
I’ve stopped chasing unrealistic versions of me that I never wanted to be to begin with.
I’m beautiful, just the way I am- flaws, dimples, scars, wrinkles and everything else.
Maybe I’ll never grace the cover of a magazine or be admired for a flawless body, but at least I’ll be able to live:
I want to eat the ice cream, enjoy the pizza and live my life the way that I choose..not living in fear of gaining a pound or losing perfection.
I’m worth so much more than that.
So, the world can keep their imaginary version of beautiful perfection- I don’t want any part of it.
I’m happy just the way I am, and no one can take that away from me.
This is my life, my choices and my body..
And I choose, more than anything-
to love who I am, embrace what I’m becoming…
And oh yes, I’m going to eat the dessert when I get the chance.
