What Makes You A TRUE Diva?
As a young girl, like many others my age, I was inspired by beautiful women on the cover of magazines, and how they graced such beauty. Dieting the majority of my childhood was hard. Always struggling to be thin and beautiful like the women I admired, I was never happy with my body. I was never thin enough and the more I tried and failed, the more depressed I would become. Seeing their perfect complextions and shapes only made me feel inferior to them. Although inspired, I knew that I would never be that perfect.
As I aged and grew into maturity, I soon realized that beauty is merely skin deep. If I could only embrace what God gave me then maybe for once I could be happy with the way I looked. It was only then that I started feeling more comfortable in my own skin. The more I embraced my curvy figure, the more I learned to love the true me.. Being a beautiful person on the inside, makes others see you as an even more beautiful person on the outside, and that to me is what is most important. God made everyone special and being different is what makes each of us unique. I’ve learned to love my curves and embrace everything about me, inside and out and to be an inspiration to others. If telling my story only helps one person, then that is worth it to me, that is what a true diva is to me.
