Society Sucks...
But the thing is, we are society. Every girl has imperfections and insecurities. Instead of being told we are beautiful regardless, people tell us how to change who we are. As we grow up we start to care more about how society sees us, then how we see ourselves. The inevitable darkness of society seems to swallow girls up before we can even learn to love who we are.

Confidence is becoming more and more foreign, as we grow up to only be more self-conscious. We are told to think outside the box, but yet anything different is looked at as wrong. Beauty can never truly be defined, there is no beauty that can be trivialized into
any amount of words, no matter how kind.
Perfection is something we strive for and thrive for, yet no one realizes that it's already been grasped. Our personalities and morals have become irrelevant, and looks and appearances are becoming more prevalent. Beauty radiates from the inside out, so how can society claim they see the beauty throughout. They convince us that we need to change, that girls with beauty lack the brains. So let's prove them wrong, perfection is not one thing but many, and who are they to tell us who we should be. The things we do now set the tone for the future, and I dread the day my daughter will cry into my chest because someone told her she was not well dressed.
At what point in time did perfection and beauty become intertwined because they are completely different in my mind. Beauty is not always something we can see, but it certainly lies beneath what society will let us be. Our bodies are nothing but a home for our souls, so how is perfection based on something so temporary, something so irrelevant to our end goals.
Just because someone may appear to be perfect in the eyes of society, doesn't mean they don't share in the struggle to constantly please others, till it becomes their top priority. It's an ongoing battle across the field, to fight for ourselves and how we truly feel. The images that are presented to us play with our minds, they make us think that there can only be one kind, but beauty is different and will never be the same. It will never exist in only one way. Girls use to be looked at as nothing but an object, but over time we have proved to be strong, and intelligent, which was for society a new concept. So we must make it a constant effort to not let society slip back to the ways of the past because our beauty is nothing without the simple imperfections that define us as a class. Society must learn to let us fill in the molds that have become perfectly imperfect, instead of the one they view as the only way to carve us. Our molds don't have to be identical and flawless to make something that is strong, independent, and perfect.
Perfection should not be based on what's on the inside, but what's throughout. Our beauty will always radiate from the inside out. Perfection can not be stereotyped into only one thing! If perfection was specific to only one type of look, then would perfection even exist beyond the pages of a book? We need to stop letting looks define us, society needs to reevaluate their priorities. Their morals are foggy and it's not at all fair, that they possess us to think that we are not all there. But perfection lives in everyone, it just is hard to see. Perfection is you. Perfection is we. Perfection is she who has come to be.
