After much meditation,
And careful consideration,
I came to realize that no one has the right to define beauty,
Neither has anyone been vested with the power to describe pretty,
So stop feeling down-cast because you don't have a figure-eight shape,
Stop trying to go through some sort of surgery to obtain a well-rounded shape,
Even if you think you are beautiful by the society's standards,
And by the world's unreliable standards,
Here is one thing you must know,
Beauty is not superficiality or artificiality, it is an inner glow,
"Pretty" is a relative term, you are only as pretty as you think you are,
It is your self-esteem and the way you carry yourself, that will take you far,
You don't need a man to make you glow,
You don't need anyone to let you know,
That you are beautiful just the way you are,
So stop trying to impress people by leaving you body parts bare,
Above the foundation, the make-up and the skin-care products,
True beauty and real "pretty" is that of a character, of a genuine personality-an inner product,
It is beauty that is perceptible,
And "pretty" that remains visible,
Even in the absence of superficial adornment,
And artificial embodiment,
You are as beautiful as you think you are,
So search for your inner beauty, bring it out, and the world will soon come to appreciate it.
Peace
