I had to spread this around :D
Everything said in this video is so true,
Im sorry that my handwriting isnt great and that its kind of hard to read and i was shaking. haha :/ and yes, i know that where it says “dumb” it looks like it says “dumd” its because my B at the end didnt curve in all the way. im sorry. but just watch it and enjoy. :) haha :) <3 i just want to get a point across. :) big is beautiful and i hope that i make someone smile and feel better by watching this.<3 :)
Love is louder than the pressure to be perfect.<3 :)
I will never stop helping fighting to get others to themselves as they really are: a beautiful person.
I don’t care how many times you say you’re ugly, I’ll disagree. I don’t care how many times you say you’re a horrible person, I’ll say you’re wrong. I don’t if you tell me “I’m not beautiful” when I tell you that you are, I’ll still continue saying your beautiful. I don’t how much I well I know you, because I know that nobody deserves to hae themselves. Nobody deserves to be in pain. Nobody deserves to feel like they’re not good enough. People don’t tell you these things just to give you half hearted reasons to stop hating yourself, they tell you this because they honestly believe that. They tell you this to tell you know no matter what terrible think you’re thinking about, those thoughts are wrong. You may not believe the best about yourself, but others do and will not stand to tell you give up on yourself.
This is for ALL OF YOU!
You’re beautiful. You’ll always be beautiful no matter what your weight is. The way people treat others because of their size is ugly. You’re better than that. There’s nothing about you that you should be ashamed of, because you’re amazing and perfect the way you are. No matter how much some people want to enforce the idea that anyone is not skinny is ugly, I guarantee you there many, MANY people in this world who’ll disagree. Weight does not determine beauty. Just thought I’d tell you that. :D
Great video of the day :D
I get told I am skinny all the time.
Happiness has never come. I have had to choose it every single day.
This is probably my biggest struggle with accepting myself.
I was frequently accused of being conceited, or over-confident, or arrogant when I was comfortable with myself (for that brief period of time freshman year of high school, right before my ED began developing). I was called self-obsessed (okay, what 14-year-old is NOT self-obsessed to some degree? And would a seriously self-obsessed person be participating in global or national activism, like I was from the age of nine?), self-absorbed, a bitch because I wasn’t afraid to be who I truly was. I had heard it so much that by the time a friend of mine suggested skipping meals and dieting to lose weight, I was vulnerable enough to be convinced.
I have let that one moment (and, to be fair, the thousands of similar subsequent moments) control my life for the last eight years, but it matters more to me now to be happy, strong, revolutionary than thin, small, fragile.
Be revolutionary with me. Abandon the voices in your mind telling you that you aren’t good enough, that you are self-obsessed - they are all WRONG. You are beautiful, and you should know and be proud of that fact.
So I Can Say This is the Way That I Used to Be: The Problem with Using Thinspo
This is coming from a girl who used to have a very successful thinspo tumblr. I was a full supporter of it for a long time, and I looked down my nose at people who said “Thinspo is unhealthy!” thinking they just didn’t get it.
Yeah there’s the argument that thinspo is pretty warped, because it…
Beauty is in All: Blogs that keep telling you that it's OK to keep starving your self, and that skinny is the only way to be pretty are...
How can any blog/website enforce the idea that you must put yourself through so much pain and unhappiness. A person who’s going through such pain should never want others feel such a way. I have depression,I hate myself a lot, I’ve self injured, I’ve contemplated suicide many times, and I’ve…
