JUST THE WAY YOU ARE

Some of us, think that we are too big

While some of us, think that we are too small

Some of us, think that we don’t know enough

While some of us, think that we just know it all

Some of us, think that our hair is too short

While some of us, think that our hair is too lengthy

Some of us, think that our hair is too straight

And some of us, just think that our hair is too kinky

Some of us, think that our lips are too full

While some of us, think that our lips are too thin

Some of us, think that our nose is too pointy

While some of us, think that it’s too smashed in

Some of us, think that we are too short

While some of us, think that we are too tall

Some of us, think that our breast size is too big

And some of us, think that we don’t have any at all

Some of us, think that we are too dark

While some of us, think that we are too light

But ALL OF US, WERE MADE IN GOD’S IMAGE and HE MADE US ALL JUST RIGHT!

I love you just the way you are.

Thank you for reminding us to do something that should come as second nature but for far too many, does not; love and HONOR ourselves and our wonderful Creator!

FEMALES NEED TO HEAR THIS 24 HOURS A DAY….THIS IS VERY TOUCHING AND SO TRUE, BUT SOCIETY MAKES US FEEL THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE OF WHAT THIS MESSAGE IS DISPLAYING…. PLEASE KEEP THIS UP ITS SO INSPIRATIONAL… REBECCA LALA WATSON

Thank you, ladies for your support and comments. I found them both to be very touching. Often, I have to remind myself of this very thing and although society may change its standards of beauty every season, we can rest assure that God remains the same and no matter what the season is HE LOVES US, JUST THE WAY WE ARE."
