Princess, What's Wrong?


  Princess, what’s wrong? Why are you crying? What did they say? You’re not good enough? You’re not pretty? You’re worthless? Honey, they’re wrong. You are perfect. You are a beautiful creation, an example of the accomplishments of nature. Your wide eyes and messy hair show that you feel things deeply. You are human. You don’t need to lose weight, so go eat a burger. Better yet, have a bacon cheeseburger, it’s on me. Sweetheart, listen to me. Turn around, and dry your tears. Let me bandage your wounds and heal your heart. Your scars are gorgeous; they are a part of who you are. The struggles you have been subjected to have shaped you into the person that you are today, you are unique and wonderful. You can do anything that you put your mind to because you have amazing capabilities. You are amazing. Don't let anyone tell you different. Be great. Be powerful. Be YOU.
