Can you look in the mirror & instantly pin-point e Can you look in the mirror & instantly pin-point every tiny thing you don’t like, what you would change about yourself & appearance? There’s likely not much one can say to tear me apart that I haven’t already told myself. No one can hurt & insult me better than I can myself But no amount of wallowing, complaining, criticising or wishing, will change who I am & certain parts of me. Certainly not ones I was born with & aren’t under my control I’ve been struggling with acne for a long time, first on my back & later on my face. To this day, I also have scars on my face. I would never wear shirts that had open backs bc I was ashamed, I worried what people would think & say. I would constantly get comments on my skin, as if I didn’t already know. They had a whole spiel of what I was doing wrong, how terrible my skin is & what I need to do It rubbed off on me. I never really had image issues or cared much about my looks & who said what about it & suddenly I was being my own worst enemy, fixating on everything wrong with me, even gruelling myself for it We live in a world that idolises beauty & always judges how we look & dress. What pictures we post on IG & how many likes we get We should stop listening to all that poison, stop bringing others down for every mishap & scar. Instead, start embracing our imperfections & inspiring others to do the same It took me a long time to stop listening to all the hate & toxicity around me, to stop looking at all the perfect skin of others around me & comparing theirs to my own & even longer to stop taxing myself for it, let alone embracing myself, with all my scars & blemishes. I took the long route to discover that my flaws make me who I am, I wouldn’t be me without them. They make me human, unique & different It’s my non-bulshit, anti-conforming & drama-free mindset, which came with my 30’s & singlehood, that helped me stop caring & even more so the people spreading it You should do the same. Embrace yourself with all of your flaws, quirks, weirdness & scars, bc they are what make you special & unique #embraceyourself #embraceyourflaws #embracingsingleness #mblwrites #selflovejourney #singleand30 #singleandthriving
