Many people in this word do not like the way they look or act at one time or another. Most girls are concerned with their weight or appearance more than half the time that they don’t stop and look at them selves in the mirror; I mean really stop and look in a none conceded way. Just look at what it is that they do like and after a while they would realize that there is nothing that they cannot live with. You should be happy with your self because if you look at everyone else not everyone is perfect.

Don’t look at what you don’t like about your self, and look at what you do like. Everyone is different and is built differently. Avoid looking at what others have that you don’t because you could have something people like that they don’t have. It would be the day when people would not look at their outer appearances before they realize that their personality and attitude count just as much.

If you have “good looks” but have a horrible attitude them they’re told outer appearance doesn’t even matter. I didn’t believe that until I went into my freshman year of high school and saw this one guy that I thought was so cute but he didn’t have any true friends and didn’t have a girlfriend, but I could not figure out why. I started to talk to him as I was in the hallways and later realized that it was because he was rude and self-centered.

Physical appearance is not everything. You cannot be the most beautiful thing in the world with the most ugly personality in the world as well. So don’t listen to the media and what other people say about you because in the end if you are making any changes it better be for you. The only person that really has to live with you for the rest of your life is you. So that is the only opinion that a really and truly matter is you. Nobody likes it when someone cannot be comfortable with themselves.

You're right, Sam. I think most girls stop and question whether they meet the beauty standards set by our society, but it is important to remember that simply being unique is way beautiful.
