#NoFilter


"Say cheese!" is all they say to me.

"C'mon, girl. Let's take a selfie"

Sepia, Tonal, or B&W.

They aren't trying to shame you, only help you.

Adding stuff to make us look "right".

We are only doing it for the likes.

Don't be like them, outshine them all.

You're the prettiest, after all.

Just take the picture and post it.

There's no point trying to denote it.

I won't use a filter.

It only makes me feel guiltier.

I'd rather not photoshop.

I'll just give it all I've got and never stop.
