   We don't shame flowers for being too big or too little, too short or too tall, too pink or too red, we just embrace them with their unique beauty... Why don't we start doing that with ourselves?     Ive been on this journey since i was 8 years old. I was told I was "too" fat and in order to be accepted by society, to have friends, for boys to like me, I needed to be thin. I believed that with a passion. I grew up hating my own home, a home that was desperate for love, a home that wanted to be appreciated, a home that was in search for peace. Beginning of teen years, that's when it got hard, I used to wake up every morning already knowing how i look like and hating the image in my head and the image in the mirror. I used to think that I'm worthless because of my body, I'm talent less because of my body, and maybe im just a waste of space because of my body. Inside, I was going crazy. My insecurities could eat me alive But I didnt give up

Why is it that a new born baby girl is dressed up in pink and a baby boy in blue to differentiate between the two sexes? How often do you see a guy wearing pink when you go out to eat? How often do you walk into the men's aisle and see pink colored clothing's? How often do you see a guy with flowers on his shirt? Many questions arose in my mind as i grew older and i was expected to behave a certain way in front of other people. To dress like a girl, to sit like a girl, to talk like a girl. to walk like a girl and to "behave" like a "girl". I never understood why it was so important for a girl to stay within the boundaries in order to be accepted by society and to be happy. I never understand why it is so important for a girl to fit in, in order to be happy. And lets be real, everyone wants to be happy, and I believe that true happiness comes from within, when you accept all your abilities and disabilities and still consider yourself "beautiful".

Hey Everyone! My name is Rubab. I'm 17 years old, from Pakistan. I'm new here so excuse the mistakes and blunders i make.

Everyone is welcome here and I'd love to make new friends, and one of the sole purpose of starting my own blog is to get stuff out of my head and share it with people who have a same perspective and hearing different perspectives, opinions, and different view points and trying to get to know the world better with a good outlook. I am here to learn and get to know myself better on this journey, and i guess we're all on this journey so yeah. Also, Im not quite sure how often I'll be posting but I'm always super bored with thunderstorms in my head so im pretty sure ill be quite
