Embracing Oneself from Within


We often overlook ourselves from within because we are too busy critiquing our own skin..defining ourselfs by others judgements why not embrace one self from within? My beauty is the physical image of mysef but I am not defined by the way my hair flows, the way my skin glows, why yes these qualities are as well beautiful but why not embrace the embelleshments on the inside for physical beauty is skin deep and there is more to me and more to you than what others choose to seek..I am beautiful not only because of my looks but because of who I am. I am my laugh, my soft voice, my heart that strongy pumps blood fiercely throughout my body, my strong soul that gets weiry but never gives in , my strong mind that drives me to do good. Society is so fixated on looks that we slowly turn away from the character..good looks with out character is nothing but a body with a captivating shell but what about the story you have on the inside to tell?,So to all I say, dont go through life judging yourself. Embrace oneself.
