Beautiful.

So today I decided for the first time in 19 years that I am going to look the way that I want to look...not the way that other people say that I should. Today I went and got my hair done, I chopped 2 inches off...for so long I thought that in order for me to look "beautiful" I had to always worry about my appearance, but today I had a revelation...as long as I am happy about the way that I look like and I am a genuine and beautiful person on the inside it will show through my looks and how I dress (you know all the things that most people obsess over). I mean why is it that people take so much time trying to alter their appearance for other people and not themselves, life is too short not to be truly happy and if that means shaving your head so that you don't have to worry about your hair anymore then so be it. I think one of the main reasons why I stopped caring so much was because I finally am starting to feel comfortable in my own skin, excepting everything about myself including the things that I hate, I am made in the image of God and that is beautiful.

Just a thought,
Until next time...

And I ain’t built like a supermodel
But I learned to love myself unconditionally,
Because I am a queen"   ~Video by India Arie
