Buddha said "You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love & affection."


Today I am sick at home and have been sick for a while, so i am sorry for not posting in a bit.

When I started this blog, I want to show people that beauty is more than just being what everyone thinks it is. I wanted to redefine that word that it comes in so many forms. But I didnt talk about what that word really means.

When I type the word "beauty" into the search bar of my homepage, the first thing that came up was beauty products... How did our society come to this? It has come down to physical objects and that's what we put ourselves as. We are just physical objects.

But when I looked at the second link that come up and it was wikipedia. I clicked an it and it had the definition of the word and what I loved about it was how it talks about the admirable characteristics like "attraction and emotional well-being." And to me, it did not once mention anything physical. I'm thinking that a source that most people look at did not mention about being physically perfect. That is just plain awesome.

To go in depth of that, it stated about the characteristics... yes I know that it could mean physical appearance too but it leaves room for everything else. We are all human beings, we are not perfect.

And I will come clean right now, I am trying to inspire so many out there that we need to love ourselves and be healthy. But sometimes, I think of what it would be like to be "one of the hotties." All I am telling you right here is that... I know that we're weak to the media or our inner devils sometimes but we're here together. Anytime that WE are thinking that we're not good enough... always think that there are others who think of the same things. But together, we can admit it but also know that hey... we neeed to go forward. And that we're not alone. When we think half-empty there are others who will help bring us back to thinking half-full.

Buddha said "You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love & affection."

We are all humans... its ok to be weak... because without knowing you have weakness, you wouldn't know about your strengths. So be weak at times, but ALWAYS come back STRONG.
