Black Girl Magic

Throughout most of my life I have struggled with gaining confidence with my beauty, weight, and personality. I have struggled in these three areas for different reasons, but the main one would be that I personally haven't spent enough time getting to know myself inside and out. I just recently started asking myself am I truly happy where I am in life? I have goals that I want to achieve, but I can't do anything without self love as the foundation of my success.

I realize that I can't lie to myself and that I should not be ashamed of any dreams or aspirations that I may have. If I don't like someone or something It is okay for me to get away from them or anything the could hinder me mentally. Negative energy is powerful and it can make or break your success, but positive thoughts and people can propel you to things that you haven't even dreamed of.

I want my dreams to come true and I will do whatever I need to to be able to be the best person possible. It has only taken the last 7 years for me to realize that no one else's opinion on my life matters. I used to do almost everything with the intentions of pleasing others and getting their approval.

All I've ever wanted was for people to like me and to have a huge amount of friends, but my intentions are not like most people.On this journey to loving myself in a better way, I have broken the mental stigma that I have to be a certain size or look a certain way to make an outfit look good or to be happy.

I am not completely confident yet, but I am on my way! I refuse to let others and their insecurities take control over my life and how I view myself. These photos are only the beginning of my beautiful journey. I think that mental acceptance of who you is the only acceptance that you need. I am embracing my Black Girl Magic with open arms! Thank you so much for reading!
