I tagged this wrong. It's weeeenhi.tumblr.com. Oops. fshflaa.
I know some of you may have trouble hearing me talk due to my very low voice. Although, I attempted to speak in a louder voice and project it as much as I can, without necessarily looking like I'm screaming or yelling. There was a lot I wanted to say but a lot I had to condense. So I had trouble organizing this all together.
Besides the point, I will write a few more things of what I want to say.
The point is, what I'm trying to say, is you're not alone with your insecurities. Even if we are content in our own bodies there are just going to be some things that we're insecure about. Whether it's something physical or out of habit. We just have to know when to draw the line. When we do not let it affect us so much and allow it consume us with nothing but negativity. To the point where we're so repulsed, that it becomes hard to look at ourselves in the mirror. We have to draw the line.
I always find girls trying to copy certain things and trying to look exactly like a certain person they idolize. Although, every girl needs to realize she will always be herself. You are you. That's what makes us unique. We may be similar to one another but similarity isn't sameness. Think of it this way 1.0001 isn't the same as 1. It's very close to one but it isn't one. 1 is 1. You are you. We are a masterpiece; born as a blank canvas, to be painted with our own personal attributes, traits, and experiences.
It is so important that we accept our own bodies and appreciate the body we're given.
Girls have the tendency to forget how much their worth because someone has broken up with them. But that should never tear down a girl completely. Not all guys will want you as their girlfriend but that's okay. You have to be able to hold yourself up and know your own beauty without relying on others to give that to you.
Only you have the ability to affect how highly you think of yourself at the end of the day. Only you let those negative affect you.
Forget all those negative insults people throw at you. There are a lot of cruel people in the world who wants to tear down people's self esteem. You just have to rise above. Let them know their comment does not affect you. There is nothing more irritating to someone, that's trying to make you mad, when you're completely apathetic and lack the concern towards their comment. Don't give them the reaction they want.
To be quite honest, I know exactly how it feels to be insecured. To the point I didn't even like to see myself in the mirror. To the point I used to hide behind my make-up. But that's no longer me and I will not ever be that weak girl anymore. It's not something easy to love yourself and it's not going to happen in a day, but in time, gradually, you will find yourself loving who you are if you're open to new changes.
To look at your 'imperfections' in a new light.
Sometimes we care so much about our looks we spend needless amounts of money on materialistic items that we forget what matters--who we are as a person. How that money we spend could actually be going towards a organization for the poor. For people who actually need the money to survive another day.
The fact that we're beautiful despite all of those things should mean something to us.
Sure, it's reassuring when a guy compliments you. But it is so important for you to be able to see that in yourself. You will only see yourself going down a downhill spiral if you keep going into relationships in hopes of feeling better about yourself. Because if people continue to leave you, so will your self esteem---it will diminish and hold no existence.
I also thank you anyone who has taken the entire time to read this and watch the entire video. If this video somehow helped you, please leave a comment. This was my first actual video trying to get through to people and I guess I want to know how well or bad it went.
I only had good intent.
Great vid Nhi, I really enjoyed it. Really makes a person think....I told your sister this, but I may as well put it here too. "It was definitely worth watching/reading. There were allot of good point and really nothing I can disagree on. Myabe outer then "F-guys". xP But yeah, I really enjoyed it and like I said...It was all very true and sincere. That's kinda the part that sold me on the whole thing, if ya feel me?" All I'd like to add to that is not all guys are bad...Just most of em. x_x

@iFapD Haha of course, Jake. I know this. I just meant when I said "eff guys" I meant towards the guys who do not know how appreciate girls or the person they're with. Just like 'eff' any girls who does the same towards guys. There are guys out there who genuinely care and know how to look past things. Just like the part where I said that you have to look for guys who hold some bit of standards and look pass looks and for something that matters such as someone's personality. Anyways, thank you.
