Dear beautiful,


Dear beautiful,
 
 
Do you realize there are hundreds of thousands of little girls out there who are just like you? 
 
 
These girls may look different, but they are all the same
 
 
Different heights and sizes
 
 
Different eye shapes
 
 
Some have large hips and some have small
 
 
Some who wear glasses and some who wear contacts, and some who don’t have sight at all
 
 
But these girls are all just alike 
 
 
Like you 
 
 
They’re beautiful and they don’t realize it 
 
 
It is because they were taught just like you that beauty is on the outside only
 
 
They were taught that no mater how smart you are, no matter how well you respect others, no matter how beautiful you are on the inside
 
 
You are ugly 
 
 
You’re ugly because you don’t wear fancy clothes or get your hair done every week 
 
 
You’re ugly because you don’t bother to keep up with the latest trends 
 
 
You’re ugly because you’re inner beauty doesn’t match your outer beauty 
 
 
But that stops today
 
 
Realize your worth and understand you are beautiful 
 
 
Your eyes are the windows to your soul that tell a beautiful story with your smile
 
 
Your intelligence is a life long staircase that only ends when you cease to seek knowledge
 
 
Your courage is your strength to beat any and every task you are going to deal with in this world that society has made almost impossible to live in 
 
 
Your beauty is more mouth dropping than any Disney princess or Marvel hero
 
 
Your beauty is you. 
 
 
Realize you are greater then any box they will try to put you in, and you will rule the world. 
 
 
Sincerely,
A girl like you
