What Makes You A TRUE Diva?
The title of being a ‘True Diva’ is not something that is given to you… it is a title you give yourself…and for me, this was not an easy thing to do. The moment I considered myself a true diva, is the day I became true to myself. Unfortunately, took me 27 years to give myself this gift. In today’s society, self-acceptance is easier said than done. The media heavily clouds our vision on what real beauty is and I feel that as a society we do not have our priorities straight!
In the Oxford Dictionary, the definition of beauty is:
1. A combination of qualities such as shape, color or form that pleases the aesthetic senses.
2. A combination of qualities that pleases the intellect or moral sense.
Both definitions are legit descriptions of beauty, however, as a society we need to move definition number two, into position number 1.
I truly believe, when you are the best person you can be on the inside, it will shine through on outside.
In my eyes, a “true diva,” is any woman that accepts herself…..and is the best they can be on the inside and out.
I have not been given the title of “True Diva,” I have given it to myself, because I know, every day I wake up and I am the best woman I can be. I strive upward and I can only hope to help other women in society realize that the best gift you can give yourself is self-acceptance….because on a scale of one-10, I am a 12!
Life is short; don’t wait so long to give yourself this important gift.

…so true. You are a true Diva when you know that what you’re feeling about yourself makes you feel good. Your thoughts about you become you. Think radiant and you will be radiant. Think love and you will be love. Whatever you think about yourself you will be that. Think positive and you be positive.
Congratulations Lauren! YOU are a TRUE Diva!
