be yourself.. everyone else is taken.











Earlier this summer, a couple friends and I went downtown to contribute to "operation beautiful", a project where people anonymously put encouraging quotes on post-it notes in public places, like bathroom walls, doors, and benches.  We had so much fun posting them all around the city and even handing some to fellow pedestrians.  It was so amazing to see people's expressions and gratitude to our positive quotes.  One woman even started yelling to us as she passed that we were beautiful too.  Saint Therese of Liseux said, "The only way I can prove my love is by.. every little sacrifice, every glance and word, and the doing of the least actions of love."  Every good dead, no matter how small, makes in impact.  These notes, we hope, helped at least one person get through their day a little easier.

you're beautiful, no matter what they say.


























A friend told me about this the other day.. It is so inspiring. It really shows the true statement that everyone is beautiful. Our beauty comes more from our inside than it does on our outside appearance. Too many girls (like they said), including me sometimes, get caught up in the number on the scale and not just how they feel and if they are healthy. My goal from now on, and it should be everyone's goal, is to simply be healthy. That does not mean I'm never going to eat a cookie again, but it means that I am going to be conscious about what I eat, but not obsessive. We are all beautiful in our own ways; we just have to have the confidence to see it. I'm definitely going to take part in Operation Beautiful.

Oh her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying

She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day
Yeah I know, I know
When I compliment her
She wont believe meAnd its so, its so
Sad to think she don't see what I see

But every time she asks me do I look okay
I say

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

Her nails, her nails
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates but I think its so sexy

She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day

Oh you know, you know, you know
Id never ask you to changeIf perfect is what you're searching for
Then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking
If you look okay
You know I say

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

The way you are
The way you are
Girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
