YOU'RE WHAT YOU SAY YOU ARE!! BEING A TEENAGER!
Growing up, I didn’t like the shape of my legs. I didn’t like the structure of my body, the complexion of my skin, the texture of my hair, the boundary of my hair line…
In fact, there were many things I didn’t like about myself. I never really classified myself as ‘PERFECT ’ or ‘pretty’. The fact that I had a small stature and was very slim… or should I say thin…made matters worse.
I couldn’t understand why I never got the right size of clothes in the malls Blouse, skirts, gowns, jeans …etc etc …they always needed to get tailored! Before wearing!! To add salt to injury, world people will not let me rest. Do exercise will make you grow taller, eat more sugar. It will make you grow fatter.” Nobody will believe that you’re the first born ” in the family.
Then one day my dad told me! .” beauty comes no size! Made me hear this one retro hindi song that actually changed things for me! KUCH TOH LOG KAHENGE, LOGON KA KAAAM HAI KEHNAA................CHODO BEKAR KI BAATON MEIN KAHI BEETH NA JAYEEE RAINA Then, I began to love myself – everything about my self.
I would say to myself “You are beautiful. You are just the perfect size. Anybody that is taller than you is too tall, and anybody that is bigger than you is too big.” And although sometimes I feel more fearful than wonderfull , I have come to understand that “i am what i say i am! .
Size doesn’t matter to me anymore, but the greatness that I carry on the inside.
After all “Dynamites come in small packages.”😇 How do you define yourself?
is all that MATTERS
