Why can't we be happy in our own skin? Nothing is ever good enough. Why must we always believe that what we call beauty, is something so unattainable?
It's pointless to try to figure out what drives people to extremes in search for what is called "being socially acceptable"...beautiful... as we already know, many things influence people.
Why do we fail to see that real beauty lies within? Why must it take so long and be so damn hard to actually learn the lesson and stop treating ourselves this way...we know the consequences, sadly, some never learn...
I'm glad to say that I am not a slow learner and though I learned the hard way, I certainly learned my lesson.
When I was a kid, I was the chubby little girl. At the time, like most kids, I didn't have a care in the world. Then, the bullying starts; a lot of us know that story.
At school, I was often called names, made fun of, laughed at, critized, basically banned from hanging with the other girls; pushed to the point where I had to hide in corners just so I could eat my lunch...or throw it away...whatever I thought was best at the time.
