One day you’ll wake up and you’ll realize how beautiful you are. You’re going to realize that you don’t need anyone to tell you that. It’s not going to happen over night. It might not even happen in a few months, but one day you’ll realize that beauty is deeper than physical attraction. It’s the kind words you say to people. The words that make people’s day, especially when it has already been a terrible week. One day, you’ll understand why the others never worked out. It’s because they didn’t see the beauty you are. They didn’t appreciate it, like you do. One day you’ll be in peace with yourself, and that’s the day you’ll fall in love with your own beauty.

The author's comments:

I’ve always struggled with self confidence, and I’ve learned that you don’t have to be beautiful on the outside to be beautiful on the inside. Sometimes, inside beauty, soul beauty, is all we really need. Society labels us and then we begin to label ourselves. This is what this piece is about ! Hope you enjoyed it!
