In world which longs for perfection, it's difficult to live in a society with imperfection. No matter what you do, you will never be enough. People will always have something to say against you.
Nobody's perfect. Each of us has our flaws. Some might look perfect physically but they might have flaws we can never see with our naked eyes. It's easy to pint out what's wrong with other people than to point out what's wrong with ourselves. It's not because we're trying to conceal or deny the truth, it's actually the opposite.
We know our flaws which is why we somehow want to change it by doing everything we can in order to make us perfect. That perfection is based on the standard of the world.
The world is always looking for perfection, a single flaw might cause someone his everything.
Racial discrimination is still rampant nowadays. I've watched video clips of people who discriminate other nationality which doesn't benefit the two parties involved. It is disturbing to be seen and experienced especially by young children. Children must be educated that there is only one race, and that is human race.
Bullying comes with many forms. Verbal bullying is the worst of it all. It might not have given us physical wounds but wounds in the heart are more dangerous than the physical wounds. It takes longer to get healed. Physical bullying because of being too ugly, weird or just because they don't like you for being you.
Bullies were once bullied. That cycle will continuously be repeated if it isn't stopped.
Plastic surgery is often the best resort for people who wanted to look perfect. I'm not saying that this is wrong but this has been the trend due to wanting to fit in a crowd.
People will like you for being someone you're not.
Body shaming has been one of the most common types of pointing other people's flaws. Words such as fat, too skinny, stretch marks, noodle hair, dark skin, acne with face and so much more are just mere words but it cuts deep. People will tell you how exactly you look. It's as if they are the magic mirrors that when you come across them you'll surely hear the same exact words just for you.
Your body must fit the standard of being sexy.
One size fits all. If you're too fat you cannot wear the onesize outfits. It is to instill that you must maintain a slim figure in order to buy outfits. If you're way too fat you can't wear their brand of clothes. This must not be an issue. Having stretch marks is okay. It doesn't make you less of a person. Having extra fats is okay. It's doesn't make you less. This must also be an eye opener for those people who easily judged others that there are conditions which make a person gain weight. It's not always intentional, some has medical condition.
Your size must not be determined by the people around you. Determine yours.
Suicide has also been an act which destroyed lots of families, friendships and left people agonizing for the loss of their loved ones. If the world can't appreciate you, your family and friends can. There's no good in taking your own life. If this has been on your mind lately please do not succumb to this voice saying that it's what you must do in order for the pain to end. There's still hope.
Ask for help. I know that all you feel is numbness and too much pain but taking your life away wouldn't end it. I'm here to listen of ever you need someone to talk to. They say that telling a stranger your problems help. Since you don't know each other well but the purspoe is so that you can get it off your chest.
Please just please don't do it.
All of these are because of being imperfect. People will hate you for being you. If you try to go with the flow, you'll eventually lose yourself. If you try to go against the current, people will mock you for trying to be different. Really there's nothing wrong for being different. In fact, all of us has one thing in common and that is wanting to be different.
Your value and worth must not be based on your looks. It must be based in being a person. The fact that you are born as human is enough reason for you to be valued.
Our imperfections make us all the more perfect.
It's easier to succumb to the voice of those people who wants to do you no good than to listen to the voice inside which tells you that you're beautiful enough, you're awesome enough and just simply you're enough.
