Summer Struggles Every Pale Person Has

All of my fair skinned and pale people know exactly where I am coming from with these following problems. We all love the beach, but our body may hate us for it.

1. You blend right into the sand.

I will not be mistaken for sand again! I can't help that my body loves to blend into things!


2. Being mistaken as a lobster.


Might as well cue Amanda Bynes, "Bring in the dancing lobsters!" We burn rather than tan and end up with aching bodies that hurt with every turn.


3. Sunscreen is your best friend. Aloe too!


Checking the time every hour is tedious but necessary. Apply, reapply, then reapply some more. We don't want to end up like #2.


4. Freckles are everywhere.


Why not add some more freckles to my body, sun?


5. You envy every tan person.


We all have that one friend who is blessed and tans very easily in the summer. Why can't my body do that?


6. Let's get shady.



Cover up my friends and enjoy you day at the beach under a lovely umbrella!

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.
