Something Different, Something Beautiful

There's something so beautiful about being a child.

You don't have a care in the world.

You're completely oblivious to what is going on around you.

And you're just enjoying life, like you should.

At least that's how I remember it...

I was care free...
I didn't think that I was fat...
I didn't think I was ugly...

All I did was dress nice.
Let my mommy do my hair and wear her heels.
Play with my toys, And watched cartoons.

Because I was so young, I didn't have to worry about social media.

I didn't even know that it existed.

But now that I do...

All I ever think about is...

"Wow I am ugly"

"I wish I was skinny"

"I wish I looked like her"

I have my days where I feel great.
And...
I have my days where I feel awful.

I sometimes  I believe that I will get a glow up.
And that this is puberty *rolls eyes*
The excuse all parents use.

But I do believe sometimes that being Different can make you Beautiful.

You just have to Embrace it.

Instead of Hiding it.

Because I believe that everyone has their own Something Beautiful. 🖤
