advice u might want to hear from my mommy💚

my mom sent me & my sister these texts after finding an old pic of her

💚 she remembers comparing herself to this girl in the pic (the girl was dating my parent’s friend)

💚 now she sees just how beautiful she was…

💚 she wants us to think of this when we go to compare ourselves to other women…that when we’re older we will see our beauty & think back to how we used to think about ourselves & wonder why we did !

💚 just thought i’d share🫶🏻

Somewhere Between
2024/8/13 Edited to

... Read moreIn an era where self-esteem can be fragile, it’s crucial to embrace messages that uplift us, especially from those we love. My mom’s texts served as a reminder of how we often undervalue our own beauty. She reflected on a time when she compared herself to a friend, thinking they were more beautiful. Now, with the wisdom of age, she understands the beauty she holds was always there. This article speaks to a universal struggle among women—how often do we look at others and wish we could see our own beauty? My mom’s message transcends generations, encouraging both younger and older women to recognize and celebrate their unique beauty. The clarity that comes with age can be a blessing, allowing us to understand that the perceptions of our youth were often clouded by societal pressures and unrealistic standards. For teens and women in their 20s, this advice is particularly relevant. It’s crucial to foster a culture of self-love and appreciation. Instead of comparing oneself to others, we should uplift each other, recognizing that every individual has their own unique qualities that make them special. Embracing our individuality is part of what makes life beautiful. This article also connects to broader themes in women's empowerment and self-acceptance, making it a meaningful read for anyone looking to reflect on their self-image.
