Beauty Pressure

Talk with your daughter before the beauty industry does! So amazing how this old ad is still valid today after all these years, and I find myself very lucky to watch it for the first time in 2014!

The Beauty industry and media are truly beasts driving women to the edge of break down! as always still pressuring women and setting humiliating beauty standards. And even with a lot of women waking up and knowing who they really are, lots of other women are still under the evil spell of striving false beauty and perfection. Ladies, what defines you is not your skin, and your imperfection is the most perfect thing!

What to do..

It can happen that you face a situation when you feel words failing you and you can't say anything suitable for the situation. You fail to tell what's going on your mind and what you feel in your heart.. You just fail to communicate with others..

It's even worse when you are dealing with someone dear to you, like a sibling, a parent, a son, a daughter, a friend, a crush, a spouse.. You have those feelings which you find hard to translate into understandable language. And when you realize that the words you used aren't suitable, it's already too late to change what was said. It's a problem that can hurt people's feelings and can put you in the worse situations, and may cause you loosing the ones you love..

What in the world can be done to get red of this problem? Words are not really my best friend.. and I'm sick of not being able to say what I feel or think.. I don't want it to be late to say what's in my heart.
I love those who are close to me, I love my family and friends and I care about them more than caring about myself. I don't know how they feel when I fail to tell them, may be sometimes they think I don't care at all and I act selfish. But in fact, I don't want them to be sad, I hate seeing them suffering, I want to lift their spirits and I want them to be happy... I just don't know what to do to show them..

It's a flaw among my flaws, a flaw that I really hate...
