Every cloud has a silver lining

Ever heard the saying 'every cloud has a silver lining' and thought well that's a load of bull? Well it is actually true.  I am not talking about it in a life changing way but more of a way that you think of yourself.

Have you ever looked in the mirror and not liked what you've seen? I know i have. It could be a big thing like thinking your fat or it could be little things that you don't like about yourself such as thinking  you have pointy ears.

Whatever it is it's what makes you, you! You might want to change things about  yourself and in some cases you can, for example if your getting bullied about your hair colour you can dye it. However, is that really what you want to do because if we changed everything we didn't like about ourselves then would  we really be our self anymore?

Instead off changing things how about we embrace them. In my case i have a big bum, it really annoys me because i do not suit anything low wasted. On the other hand it means that i really suit high wasted things and they make my figure look great. Another example is if you think your fat but you have a cracking pair of boobs. Then show those boobs off and let everyone know how amazing your boobs really are. (I wouldn't recommend whipping them out any where in public though).

If finding the silver lining on parts of you that you don't like doesn't work then try finding strong points all over and pick out things you like. You could say i don't like my legs but my eyebrows are on  fleek.

And if that still doesn't work then you could try seeing things from other peoples perspective. Using my self as an example again so i don't offend anyone, i don't like being pale but in some culture that is seen as goddess like and i don't like my freckles but some guys find freckles adorable. Sometime how you see your self is different to how others view you. You may think your fat when in actual fact no one even sees you as that.

So i hope some of these helped at least one person out there. I hate to think of people not liking themselves because you only get one body for the whole of your life you kinda have to learn to live with it in one way or another. I know  it is hard when you compare yourself to other people but next time you do don't forget to compare your strong points i bet you will trumps them in at least one thing. Stay strong, stay you and hope to see you soon.
