"You are not ugly, society is"-someone wise

"You are not ugly, society is"-someone wise

People say that "beauty" is something personal, and everyone sees it differently. 

That's why people have "types". 

She likes tall brown haired boys, he likes slim blonde girls with hazel eyes and whatever composition it is. 

Everyone sees beauty as they want. 

But oh well, we all live in a society, right ? 

And this society is well known with its standards, set by people when they feel like it, whenever, wherever. 

It is in a constant search for "originality" and uncommon stuff. 

Imagine this image with me : body types are trends. 

Can you visualize that ? 

Everything is being commercialized and objectified. 

It does not apply to a specific gender. It is implied on everyone. 

Did you know that if we jump some years back, a fat body was considered a sign of prosperity, and that meant that you ate well, it was beautiful. 

Nowadays, starving yourselves and being skinny is considered pretty. 

In some asian countries, in the past, black teeth were the trend, as it meant you can afford sweet pastries and you ate a lot of sweet stuff. 

Guess what ? today, white just like snow teeth are the standard. 

Some trends see themselves in the peak, disappear, and immerge to the surface back again! 

Nothing lasts. 

"Writing on the sand, then wave on it" effect. 

Now that everyone is seeking that curvy skinny body, white as heck teeth, and as it  being the wave that everyone jumps on, just wait 5 years from now and you will see considerable changes, and that dreamy body you have been chasing will be out of league. 

Be satisfied with yourself. 

Please yourself. 

Change your appearance for yourself. 

Be healthy for yourself. 

At the end of the road, it is only you alone. 

Don't let the society control you, abuse your self-esteem and tell you what's pretty, because at the end of the day, it is something personal, remember ? and it changes from a country, a culture, an era, to another.

Who knows, the way you look now and the way you are not happy with it and whenever you look at the mirror you wish to have someone else's body, you may be the standard in a couple years from now! 

What matters is your self-love and satisfaction. 

It is funny, as I am writing this, I am thinking of myself as ugly and I always compare myself to other people, always seeking validation from this cruel society that is in a constant change. 

Even though I am aware of this whole situation and how it toxic for myself, I feel trapped in a loop and I want to fit in. 

I went from 3 meals a day to 2. 

I take medicine to make my pimples disappear. 

I wish I was doing it for myself and not for people. 

I'm not perfect. 

But I try my absolute best to appreciate what I have, and be thankful for my body and my soul, and love my appearance. 

I am chasing and looking thoroughly for a positif image of myself. And I don't doubt that I may achieve the desired results. 

Always remember, that "you are not ugly, but, society is".-someone wise.
