Being you.

Hello my lovelies!

Today is going to be anoher post that is slightly out of my comfort zone.. I hope thats okay with you.

For a while I wasn't happy with myself. I know that might seem bizarre to some but I just wasn't happy about who I was as a person, regarding my personality & my appearance. After a lot of thought and a much needed week away at Soul Survivor I came to a lot of conclusions about the person I had become.

 I just simply was not happy, it makes me sad knowing that I spent so long putting on this perfect mask for everyone. I had a word given to me when I was away (for those who don't know what this is, its a message given to someone from God.) A random stranger was praying for me and she just looked me straight in the eyes and said this;

"Take the mask off, God thinks you are beautiful with it on... but when you remove it and he sees you exactly how he created you, he cannot resist you; in his eyes you are so perfect and so precious."

 As you can imagine this had an immediate effect on me. For a stranger to say this to me.. it felt like it was a sign that things were going to change for me. I'm glad to say things have! My life has become so much happier and people have started to recognise a difference in me. I have started to see things so much more positively, regarding to my look on life. Sometimes things would go wrong but it's always best to make the best of a bad situation which I have learnt to do.

Regarding my appearance.. I am slowly getting there. I think every person has something they don't like about themselves, there just happens to be a few more things on my list than others. However I am learning to love myself for who I am and what I look like, I no longer let peoples words define me as a person but what I think of myself defines me. When people call you negative words, they do not define you. They don't make you what they say.

So for all of the people out there who have felt or are feeling the way I have.. I want to say this; Sometimes it feels like the end of the world, sometimes it feels like nothing but this matters, it may never be okay; I'm not going to lie to you.. things suck sometimes; BUT it will always get better. Things will look up. I promise you.

Going through something like hating myself I know how bad you can feel. No-one goes through the same situation but I want you guys to know I am always here. If you don't know me personally then please message me so we can get in contact. I'm not just here to give you a review on the new eyeshadow I bought the other day. I'm here to help as much as I can. You only get one life, Try and live it with no regrets.

Try and stay positive today. Be the best you, that you can be.

Go out and change the world.

Love Char xo

  1. So brave of you to write this post. Everyone goes through rough patches and needs to be picked back up every now and again. It's good that you're slowly building up your confidence. No one is perfect, and no one expects you to be :)
