"Every day is so wonderful
And suddenly, it's hard to breathe
Now and then, I get insecure
From all the PAIN, I'm so ashamed

I am beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring me down
I am beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring me down oh no
So don't you bring me down today"

Yes those words look and sound familiar isn't it? It's part of Christina Aguilera's famous song entitled 'Beautiful'. There's a very important message to that song. It's like every girl in this world whether she's gorgeous, ugly, fat or thin, she would have this insecurity of the way she looks. So we ask this question, "Why?".

Well it's simple. People like to judge others on how they look. Outer beauty is the main criteria. And then we asked this, "What about the inner beauty?" In this modern age, people don't even care if you are the nicest person living on earth. Appearance is more important than anything else. If you are not pretty, no one would look at you or even smile at you. Isn't that just so sad? Sometimes we ought to tell ourselves this, "We don't ask to be born a certain way".

Yes medical technology is advance now. You can go under knife. Get yourself cut up and have all those artificial things inside of you. Well there's always a price to pay. Would you go all out to make yourself perfect? What happens when there are side effects or when your own body reject these "foreign" things? Wouldn't you suffer even more pain? After so much you've been through and now you are sick. Sick as in having all kinds of diseases.

That's why I realised that we, human beings cannot accept criticisms. One can just say, "Oh you are ugly and fat". At least if you are fat, you can exercise and eat healthily. But what about your appearance? Maybe cosmetics might help but to a smaller extent. Cosmetics can only cover up your flaws such as eye bags, wrinkles, open pores and scars. Definitely not physical features. It's like you can't do anything about it. God has create each and every single one of us differently. So if you are lucky, you have the whole package. But hold on, if you have the best looks, would you have the best personality and character?

That's another issue. If you noticed, majority of those people who are ugly have nice personality and character. While those who are beautiful are so arrogant. But I never say ALL. Yes there are some ugly ones who are wannabes. They want to boost their self-esteem but in the end their personality just sucks. There are some beautiful people who also have beautiful heart. But it's rare to find these bunch of people.

Whatever it is, we must always remind ourselves this, don't ever compare with others. Just be who you are. Never take people's criticisms seriously especially on your physical appearance. Don't hate yourself because of that. Maybe people just couldn't accept for who you are. But I'm sure there are other people who enjoy being with you. Your personality and character could be your strength if not your beauty.

Some even say that ugly people won't be able to be in a relationship. Well I think that's bullshit. All of us living in this world are meant to find their soulmate. It's just a matter of time and luck. I just believe that God has assigned all of us to our partners. If there's fate, that special someone would always be with you. I mean just look around you, there are so many mismatch couples. But have you asked yourself why did it happen. Well simply say that some people would rather go for inner beauty. Let's say you want to spend the rest of your lifetime with that someone, you must be able to tolerate that person. What if he/she is a difficult person? An example is that the person is stubborn-headed, likes to throw tantrums and very demanding, are you able to stand that person? Furthermore you will be living together with that someone till you are old.

And then people would say, "Oh those beautiful people with bad personality can be changed". But to what extent can that person change for you? Character and personality are built within you since young. It's based on your upbringing and how you are influenced by other people around you. So it means to say that, it's permanent in a way.

I think that people should just live happily. No use thinking so much about what others see in you. If they can't accept you then its their loss. Just believe in yourself that one day, you will find that special someone who loves you for who you are.

I guess I'm done speaking out for those people with low self-esteem =)

Have a nice day. Toodles <3
