I see it every day. It happens around me and there's nothing I or anyone can do for that matter. Insecurity, judgement, bullying and the pressure to look perfect.
I put together some quotes that may help girls going through a rough time.
"Don't forget who you are among the desire to be fake."
Groups at school judge many girls if they don't dedicate their lives to turning plastic, if their not sporting the right hairstyle or clothes, if their face is clear from makeup, if your not the right body shape and if they actually care about school. Most of the girls that waste their time judging others have insecurity problems of their own. So to all the girls that have self-image problems or anything else, don't let these girls and don't let your own mind draw you into a life of misery, judgement and pressure. You are you and you are great the way you are and believe in yourself ALWAYS.
Beauty is nothing if your not kindhearted, if you don't have a dream and if your heart isn't open to heartache."
The images we see of celebrities looking slim and gorgeous drive girls to major lengths to look like them. Trust me it's not worth it. When I was in grade five and six, it was three years ago, I went into a eating disorder. My dream was to be a model and the pictures I saw of Jennifer Hawkins and Miranda Kerr and many others made me question if I was skinny enough. I was already skinny but saw flaws when I looked at myself and then I was over exercising and under eating, luckily I gained control before I went to far and before ended up in hospital, I realised what I was doing to myself, but I went far enough. I wont go into details. So seriously girls do not stoop that low, whatever you look like now is fantastic. Love who you are and live for yourself.
Now, what I said in the quote about being kindhearted, having a dream and open to heartache, those three things are important in life. Care for your friends and those you may not necessarily hang out with, know where you want to go in life and do anything you need to do to get there, and for the heartache part. It may not sound very appealing but getting into a relationship and then getting your heartbroken or breaking someone else's heart, even though its not nice, is a big part of growing up and living your life. Its a life experience and you learn from your mistakes.
"Let your words into others hearts"
Another thing that is really bad is keeping to many worries and to many of your problems to yourself. Talk to people. Your best friend, your mum, your sister or even a counselor. Voicing a lot of things may be hard, and confiding in friends and relatives may be hardest of all but a counselor is best. They aren't allowed to share what you say, so it's sort of like whats said in the counselors room stays in the counselors room. Confiding in someone who cares for you is the best way to cope with many things. I shouldn't be telling you what to do since I don't do it myself but we'll just call me a primary source. Anyways, people depend on you so take advantage of them and depend on them too.
"Let the truth be told, there's nothing worse then being named a liar"
The truth in many ways is quite harmful but lies are far worse. Maybe you might be lying to help someone but that lie always comes back and bites you on the ass. They cause many fights, arguments and a lot of broken friendships and hearts. Whether it's telling the truth in a major situation or by giving advice on a outfit or other things like that, anything, always tell the truth. It makes you a better person.
NOTE: I'm not pretending to be a expert on advice and what I wrote might be useless but I wrote it because I care and am trying to do what I can. Also because friends and relatives have insecurity's and I'm sick of hearing about girls who hate them selves.
