‘admire someone else’s beauty without questioning your own’ find validation not from others, but from yourself, your kindness and compassion. There is nothing ‘wrong’ with the way your stomach or thighs look, there is nothing wrong with the fact you don’t look exactly like the biggest celebrity star. You are NOT just a body, you are emotions, knowledge, opinions, experiences etc. It is so easy to adopt the mentality of self destruction when we compare, whether it comes to eating habits, the fear of rejection but who cares if someone doesn’t like the way your hair is styled? Or your outfit that day? Will you care about their own opinion in 5 years time? Do not let the walls your built up for protection, turn into a prison. Allow yourself to recognise food as a friend not your enemy, your body as a piece of art not something to change, your looks to be a beautiful project not something to compare and your mind to be a butterfly. You are beautiful, don’t ever let anyone make you think otherwise. ILY
