You ever experienced waking up one day not liking a single thing about yourself? You question your own height, you question your own weight, you question your own looks, you question everything you see in the mirror. Screw that, go wash up! After cleaning yourself and yet you still feel so damn insecure? What would people think of me? Are my thighs fat in this pants/shorts? Are my scars ugly? Am I cool enough? Screw all these insecurities in you.
You see, the problem is that we spend too much time portraying ourselves as someone we're not just to please others. During the process, we lose our true selves. We forget who we are in the very first place. We lose ourselves. So what if you are short? So what if you are plus size? You are born this way, so fuck what others say about you. Those who matter to you, don't mind and those who mind, don't matter to you.
You do not exist on this planet to please every single person out there. Keep that in mind! Truth to be told, people will never stop talking and they will always have their own opinions. They can be criticising you, gossipping about you all day long but at the end of the day, does it really matters to you? Just sit back, grab your popcorn and just watch how these imbecile do their empty talks about you.

You gotta know that certain people find pleasure in bringing down others, but do you know what pisses them off? Staying above them. Yes, that's it! People try to bring you down for a reason, that's because they are below you. Try not to allow these tricks affect your self esteem. You may not see but there are many individuals out there that entirely lock themselves inside, they have withdrew themselves from the real world just because their self esteem has been damaged. Now you see how people's opinion and comments can be so hurtful, don't you?
You shall never, I repeat, never, allow these insignificant opinions bring you down at any point in life. I know I know, not everyone is born with the mentality to ignore these input of comments and just be themselves. But it is so important and beneficial to create a strong mentality that enables you to withstand a variety of opinions and criticism thrown at you.
You try so hard being someone you are not, someone that the people around you admire, in hope that they will like you, they want to be around you. But have you ever question yourself if you really enjoy acting as the person you are not? Why not just be your freaking self, and let that be the reason why people like you, the reason why people enjoy your presence, the reason why people like having you.
You don't spend the rest of your life living with these people around you, you spend the rest of your life with nobody but yourself instead (besides your family, of course). The most crucial aspect you gotta work on is being comfortable with yourself. Do not allow yourself to live life with regrets and insecurities. What you build yourself into, will be what you wear for the rest of your life. So put down all your insecurities and your negativity, start being you!
All in all, I just want to remind all the people out there going through the same situation to stop being someone you're not. You have to learn to put yourself first, sometimes we do have to be a little selfish in life. Stay strong and stay true to yourself, you gotta love yourself nevertheless. Now, take a moment to notice that every single paragraph before this starts with a you and ends with a you. So yeah, everything is about you! You, yourself, is what really matters.
