The Pretty Ugly Parts.

Despite what social media shows me I don’t believe everything has to be beautified to be relevant. Every detail filtered into perfection puts us more at odds with the parts of us that aren’t #gorg. The world will do enough to us, we don’t have to do it to ourselves. Blemishes, stretch marks, skin that rolls and wrinkles - none of it has to be called beautiful to be valid. What I’m saying is, I don’t need the bags under my eyes to be pretty. I earned them, or more likely inherited them and I am ok with that. All these things, our features and our flaws make up the body we cruise around in. All these things make us HUMAN, and the only remedy needed for being human is to be true to yourself.
