Love Who You Are

Love Who You Are:

         Insecurities is something that a lot of people about my age deal with. Girls and boys are trying to figure out they are and are trying to love themselves. But at this age in life but it can be hard if you're insecure about yourself. When I was getting bullied, I was called fat, ugly, and other names that led me to not liking myself because I believed what others were saying. I tried loosing weight by not eating as much, or working out in my basement alone as much as I could. I wore much more make-up and kept trying my hardest to look like other people. I never told anyone about what I was trying to do and I should of because I got to the point where I became getting nauseated, light headed, and I got dizzy all the time. By then, I knew I had to stop. I was no longer healthy or no longer myself. I told myself I needed to stop and it was very hard. All I could think about is to keep doing it so I could get rid of the names I was being called. I was all alone trying to do the best thing for me and I made it. I did it. Today, I am healthy and back to being me. I don't care what other people say about me because I am me and if they don't like that, they can deal with it. I have many imperfections but the word imperfect actually spells "I'm Perfect." Because everyone is perfect in their own imperfect ways. I am not going to change for people who don't accept me for who I am.


Dear everyone out there with insecurities,
         Stop being unhappy with yourself. Stop wishing you looked like someone else or wishing people liked you as much as they like someone else. Stop trying to get attention from those who hurt you. Stop hating your body, your face, your quirks. Love them. Without those things you wouldn't be you, and why would you want to be anyone else? Be confident with who you are. Smile. It'll draw people in. If anyone hates on you because you are happy with yourself then screw it. Yell out to the world; my happiness will not depend on others anymore. I'm happy because I love who I am. I love my flaws. I love my imperfections. They make me me. And 'me' is pretty amazing. Remember to; stay strong & love who you are. Things will get better you just have to trust and believe in yourself.
