Why can't we love ourselves and our bodies the way others do?
Why do we shame, criticize, and judge our bodies the way others do?
Why?
- because we are so wrapped up around the idea of what others perceive us to be rather than how we perceive ourselves to be.

Like other animals, we have patterns on our skin too.
It's human to have beauty spots, moles, freckles, wrinkles, stretch marks, cellulite, and scars.

We are not completely symmetrical and that's okay.
That's what it means to be perfectly imperfect.

We see things based on how our minds think.

You get to decide what is beautiful. Beauty does not exist on it's own but rather created by us, the observer's.
