& you're beautiful
I have this habit - as my boyfriend pointed out to me today - to not being able to keep it to myself when I find something about someone’s appearance that I like. I really don’t see a problem with that. There is always something about people I meet which I find to be stunning and unique; it can be their eyes, their skin, their shoulders, the way their hair-do frame their face, or just an appreciation of their basic knowledge of how to make themselves look real fucking awesome with make-up and/or clothes.
There is always something beautiful to notice.
And why would I keep that to myself, really? There really isn’t a reason I shouldn’t. There really isn’t a reason why I should be too embarrassed to. It’s a shallow world, we all know it, and people are looking for reassurance and confirmation all the time - why else would we even have make-up and fashion, right? If I notice something about someone which makes them unique and gorgeous, I’m gonna tell them. There’s really nothing embarrassing about it, and it can carry a person to such heights of confidence, you have no idea.
…Or maybe you do, if you’ve ever been on the receiving end of one of my (apparently) long stares with a “Wow, you have amazingly pretty [insert part of appearance of choice]”.
Because I want to tell you guys, if I’ve ever done that to one of you, I’ve meant it. Like, honestly, seriously meant it. I don’t just say shit to make people feel better, you're all people who can take care of yourselves, you’re not famous (even though most of you are talented enough to be), why would I lie and be a kiss-ass?
Most people need to hear that they’re beautiful much more often that they are allowed to. It’s an amazing ego-boost which can carry help someone get over many unrelated hardships. Sometimes we need a push forward to learn how to be strong. I know this is because of our shallow society, but who cares when there are things in each and every one of you which makes you so damn beautiful. Age, size, ethnicity (even personality, though I’d like to advice you all to be cautious; no matter how pretty you are, people will stop seeing that after a while if you’re a cranky, self-absorbed bitch) it doesn’t matter. Honestly, it’s not even difficult to find something about someone you’ve just met which is beautiful. Try it, and see for yourself.
And don’t hesitate to let them know it.
