Hello everyone.
It's been such a long, long, looooong time since I've last written anything on my blog!
I hope you've stayed tuned because I still want to talk to you about a lot of things!
And what provoked me today to finally write this blog is the feeling of insecurity and self-consciousness I get all the time.
What happened precisely is that, I was casually scrolling through Tumblr, all happy and everything's okay until I saw a couple of pictures of beautiful girls and it suddenly hit me that I'll never be this pretty.
I'll never be confident enough to share my own pictures, "because let's face it" I told myself, "I'll just never be as pretty as them." At that moment, my mood crashed down and I felt completely awful.
Why did I feel that way? How could some pictures or mere ideas get to me so much? Why do I feel like I'm always supposed to keep up with all those "cool" girls as you may put it?
This matter has always haunted my thoughts and destroyed my confidence so many times.
And I'm sure it destroyed other girls' confidence too.
You start getting used to the feeling of being ugly, neglected, out of the league, unloved, not good enough.
And you start asking yourself, what does it take to be a tumblr girl? The ideal girl?
While the right question to ask is, "Why do I keep doing this to myself?"
Let's face it, you'll never be like those girls. Unless of course, you're naturally beautiful, then you don't need to read this blog! It's directed for all of you girls, like me, who believe they're not pretty or worthy enough.
Let's discuss this issue by issue.
I know most girls dream to be like those models on magazines or as we've said before on tumblr.
But I'm sure you won't feel the same after discovering the MAGIC OF MAKE-UP, because believe it or not, I've seen way too many girls, even on youtube, literally drowning themselves in make-up to look flawless. But what happens after they remove all that make-up? They get to see a whole new different person in the mirror. And some of them develop a strong attachment and need to use make-up that they feel completely and utterly ugly and unconfident without it, to the point where it could take control over their life and eventually back-fires against them.
Face it, you can't keep living with make-up covering your face. And at some point in your life, you'll have to face others (family, friends, boyfriend) without a mask and they'll have to love you for your real you not the "plastic" you.
And as it is known, none of those women on the magazines are real. It's all photoshop and adjustments.
Another thing I've been hearing a lot is, "I wanna be like that, I wanna be like this" to the point where the female has to go through dying her hair, piercing her body even doing some body modifications just to resemble a picture she saw and have herself believe that she is now pretty.
But in the process she destroys her real image.
A lot of the girls I know, did the same thing and years later they deeply regretted it.
Another thing I've been hearing is "Thigh gaps" I googled them and trust me, I laughed.
Are girls actually killing their body and health for a bit of space between their thighs? What absurdity is this?
No, you most certainly do not need a thigh gap to be pretty. So many girls have gone too far and lost a lot of weight for this and trust me, having only bones as legs is not attractive, it's abnormal and scary as hell.
Why do we always have to look down on ourselves and forget all about the gifts we have?
You don't have to be beautiful to feel confident! As a matter of fact, guys are more attracted to an average-looking girl with a confident, strong, outgoing personality than a beautiful girl with a shy personality.
Your body is not what you're measured by, it's your character that defines you from other people.
But of course, that doesn't mean you neglect your appearance. In fact, pay it attention. Apply some light make-up, style your hair and put on something beautiful clothes to boost your confidence!
And never ever let other girls or anything get to you and bring you down. Everyone has beauty inside of them, they just have to let it shine!
