We Are All FLAWLESS


I am FLAWLESS

when my decisions

are based on

what

I

want

and not

what

other people

think I should do.

 

I am FLAWLESS

when I take

several hours in the bathroom

to look perfect

only because

I love the confidence

I gain

when my makeup is

on point.

 

I am FLAWLESS

when I skip

a shower day

because I don’t feel like

changing out of

my sweats

or

pulling my hair

out of its ponytail.

 

I am FLAWLESS

when I am me.

Because myself

and EVERY other person out there

is perfect

and no one needs

to do what other people

tell you.

Except this:

We are all FLAWLESS.
