Beauty and Strength

Listen to me when I tell you that you are beautiful. You may disagree, but let the words sink into your soul, touching something deep inside you that you’ve never felt before. I want to make you understand that God has created you to be a beautiful and unique person. Don’t look into a mirror, look into yourself. See the way your understanding and loyalty draws people in. Watch yourself one day in a simple conversation. See how the way the words fall from your lips make others subconsciously aware of the type of person that they have just been faced with.

 

You are one who deserves respect and love, and you will get it from each and every person you meet. Let a soulless person attempt to tear you down with their vile words of hate and envy. I know you, and I know that you will always rise above it, tower over their empty bodies. You have an unspeakable power that you may not realize, but it affects all of those around you. Realize that your heart and your soul can evoke emotions in others with simply a few words.

 

Now, when you take the time to look into a mirror one day, see yourself as you. Look at who you really are and do not let anything tell you that you are imperfect. Appreciate the skin, the curves that accentuate a beautiful body. Understand the difference between people and the way that you are unique from anyone else. Appreciate yourself, mind and body. You are special. You are strong.

Something I came up with on the spot. It relates to personal experience I would say. I'm open to any criticism, I love knowing what you have to say.

Outer beauty fades with time, but inner beauty thrives on the vine.

I found this story to be filled with depth and inspiration for the outright care and consideration for others. A great and inspirational story!

I found one flaw in this, and then realized that I had simply misread it. Very well done, and obviously deeply personal. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Very inspiring and wise... our imperfections are what makes us human and unique, we all have them. True beauty lies within and those who can't see it in others live in shallow water that will one day dry up leaving them high and dry emotionally.
