We hear the sad story over and over. A girl looks in the mirror and thinks that she is ugly. She is ugly and all the other girls in the world are beautiful. I will admit that I've thought the same thing here and there. But when you think about it, weren't we all created beautiful? Aren't we the ones who decides whether or not we are appealing to the eyes. I know that I am no actress, celebrity, or supermodel, but gosh darnit I am beautiful and I don't care what those fashion police on TV Guide say! I am lucky to have what I have. My hair isn't loaded with dye and hairspray because I see it as perfectly fine the way it is. In fact, I've had silky shiny hair since I was a baby. I have gone weeks at a time without makeup because my face has no room for improvement. I'm really not trying to gloat here. I hate gloating. What I am tryinf to say is that we were all born beautiful and all we have to do is realize it. You can probably save hundreds of dollars on beauty products and cosmetic surgeries if you look in the mirror and say "You know what, those skinny minis on the runways may be pretty, but I am beautiful the way I am."
