Here's the thing, beauty comes from inside. First and foremost. I live in NYC, and I see what most men would call "gorgeous" women pretty much everywhere I go, especially in Manhattan. But what ACTUALLY makes a woman beautiful is who she is on the inside. I see these women walking around with trendy outfits, their hair done just right, and absolutely empty souls. That "I'm better than you" attitude, which to me, makes them absolutely hideous.Now of course, that's only one side of the coin.What I'm getting at is that we all have insecurities, one way or another. I'm sure you're not an ugly person, but it's clear you feel that way. Which is actually fine. Some of the most beautiful people I have the pleasure of knowing aren't even aware of it. It's that humble state of mind that makes them that much more precious.We are our own worst critics. It's natural. Without that aspect, we would never grow. Keep in mind that what you feel now will not be forever.I feel like I'm bouncing around all over the place here. But all in all, this is what I'm saying. Beauty is subjective. Some people like a lot of make up. Some people don't. Some people like a brunettes. Some people don't. You can't please everyone. But you CAN please yourself. And that's where you want to start. Without being happy with yourself first, you can't possibly hope to be truthfully happy with anyone else. It won't happen in a day, or a week, or a month, or maybe even a year. But it will happen if you keep trying.Smile.It's a beautiful thing.
