The other day my friends and I were discussing plastic surgery. We talked about if we would ever get any and if so what would it be. It was not just girls, in fact it was mostly guys. Everyone was going around saying what they would change and then one of them turned to me and said, "What would you have done?" I thought about it only for a moment and said, "Nothing." They responded with, "Oh Courtney's just sitting over here thinking she is perfect." or something to that effect. So I turned and said, "is it so wrong for a girl to be comfortable with the way she is?"
Now I know my friend didn't mean anything bad or mean by what they had said, but it made me realize what kind of a world we live in. What kind of world is this that it's strange to find a girl who comfortable with who she is and how she looks. That is not how it is supposed to be.
God's intention for us all was never to feel uncomfortable in our own skin. Genesis 1:26-27 Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness...” So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
Never let a day go by that you don't encourage one another. We are supposed to be here to show others God and uplift those around us. So love everyone around you with everything you have and tell them (girl or guy) how beautiful they truly are, inside and out. Let's just try to make this world a better place, one compliment at a time.
