I Didn't Know I Was Beautiful Tanya R Taylor

If you were asked to describe yourself, what would you say?The definition of beauty has confused young girls and women throughout the ages. So much so that it has led to depression, isolation, eating disorders, anger, and self-image obsessions that have prevented people from living their best life and drove others to the verge of suicide. The problem continues today. How can we get through to every female? "Am I pretty? Am I good enough?" are the questions they have asked themselves - simple questions that when answered incorrectly often have profound consequences. The answers to value and self-worth are usually related to the scope of one's past, be it childhood or adulthood, and unfortunately many girls grow up and women continue along life's journey with the most pertinent questions about who they really are unanswered, incorrectly answered or ignored. Consequently, they learn to settle for less than they deserve and never expect anything worthwhile to happen for them, while they teach their own daughters to do the same without having to utter a single word. A dangerous concept, isn't it? So many are scarred emotionally, develop unhealthy habits and unknowingly become their own worst enemy. They feel hopeless that any turn-around is at all possible, using excuses such as: "Nothing good ever happens to me"; "I'm not attractive or talented enough"; "I'm too old"; "I've been settling for too long"; "I'm just too afraid"; "I don't want to take any risks".

All she ever did was made me feel ugly, inferior, and worthless. Although I know I'd cry whenever she passed on, I wondered if those tears would be because I'd miss her or because I'd be reliving all the emotional pain she'd inflicted upon me ever since I knew myself. I'm a grown thirty-year-old woman now, but almost daily, hearing her voice and seeing her face is a constant reminder of all she'd put me through when I was an innocent, caring child who only wanted to love her and know that she was safe."A powerful read that gets to the core of who you are as a woman and the very power of your presence.
