Beauty is becoming the fear of so many
young women. Why is society and social media imposing standards of beauty that
are beyond what is really considered beautiful? We don't need to feed a shadow
that haunts us every time we see ourselves in the mirror. The name I gave this
blog recently is "Kalon". The definition of this word is simple,
"beauty that is more than skin-deep, the ideal of physical and moral
beauty". I chose this name for many reasons. It seems that each day that
passes inside beauty is forgotten. We seem to eat less, dress tighter and spend
so much time reflecting an image that doesn't represent us. But think of this,
when was the last time you asked yourself, am I beautiful? Look in the mirror
and answer the first thing that comes to your mind. I've seen so many women
that answer "No" and this crushes me. Being beautiful is putting a
smile on your face every day even if something is troubling you. Being
beautiful is waking up each morning and looking messy after a good night sleep.
Being beautiful is believing you are absolutely flawless inside and out. I can’t
imagine a homogeneous world. Our differences, our culture, our background is
what defines us and makes us unique. “Kalon” is beauty beyond what we know,
beauty beyond words. This is what you are, beautiful.
