"I am beautiful"

Many days I've spent in my life in front of a mirror, checking for and correcting any kind of imperfection that could take the value away of what I do and who I am. So many layers of the self reduced to the outside image of my constitution, which fashion I follow and how I wear my make up.

First, I couldn't leave the house without make up because "what people would think of me?".
Second, I stopped wearing make up completely because I wanted to be accepted in my natural state.
Recently, I felt the constant fight inside me trying to speak to me, needing a moment to breathe, and be heard by me. To ask myself, who am I? and who I want to be.

We fall into the pattern of "dressing up = valuable" , "not dressing up = no effort, no value".
I felt this pattern so deeply in my body that I wasn't even aware of how much of my life was affecting until my self confidence was very low.

So, what could I do to break this? I changed my perspective and the meaning of dressing up in my life. Now, I imagine myself as a blank canvas every morning, tapping into my creative power to guide me to the image I want to present of myself that day. Because, what is the point of having many choices if we don't allow ourselves to choose differently everyday?

Forget the labels, explore the possibilities of your body, and choose freedom of expression as the concept of being beautiful.

What did my body say?
