We all come in different shapes and sizes.
That’s what makes us so unique.
That’s what makes us beautiful, each in our own way.
Please never ever compare your body to anyone else’s.
Know that your body serves you well
Lungs breathing, Heart beating
Legs walking, Hands holding
And Mouths kissing
Please love yourself enough
To accept yourself just as you are.
Because just as you are
Is perfect, Is beautiful
