New Year.. New perspectives?

Hello Everyone!
 
 
First of all.. Happy New Yeaaaaar!
Second of all.. lets all forget this "new year new me" rubbish.. because why would you want to change yourself anyway. Infact.. my new years resolution this year (along with a few others) is to be nothing but myself, and love myself for it.
 
Why, as a society are we constantly in a love hate battle with ourselves and our reflections? Why can't we live in a world where it is acceptable to be our self.
 
It's time we took a look in the mirror and paused for a second.. take a good hard look and pick out all the things you see that you like, and take a second to realise that nobody else has what you have. Because after all, every single one of us is unique in our own way. Which brings me to my next point, we need to stop being so negative and judgemental towards others around us too. Just because someone looks a little different to you, that doesn't make them ugly. Just because you see something that you've never seen before, doesn't give you the right to instantly judge someone and assume that you're better than them.
 
Girls (and guys too), we need to make a change to the society that we live in today. If we just take a minute out of our morning to look in the mirror and appreciate one good feature about our self, we might find ourselves leaving the house feeling a lot more confident. And if we all start to feel more confident, maybe just maybe we'll find ourselves feeling a lot less intimidated by the 'beautiful women' in the media today. And maybe, the media will begin to realise that it's not just the super slim super flat chested women that should be shown as desirable to both men and women, after all, why would you want to be flat chested anyway? And maybe, as the media slowly beings to bring in all shapes, sizes and races of women, eating disorders will slowly begin to decrease.. Or maybe I'm just being naïve?
 
Perhaps we'll forever be stuck in this world where the media eat off our desire to the thin flat chested women we see on the tv, and perhaps our children and our childrens children will all wake up take a look in the mirror and begin the daily love/hate battle with their reflection in the mirror.
 
If only we had the power to change it all..
 
 
 
Until next time guys,
Stay Magical
