Give yourself some love babe.

Loving yourself. All of us at some point of our lives have been told to "love ourselves". Honestly it's easier said than done. How do I know? For a long time I was struggling with acceptance of my own self. Your loved ones tell you you're beautiful when you are young; they tell you,you are the most gorgeous being they've ever laid their eyes on, but when you leave their protecting arms and venture out into the world, you sometimes hear the complete opposite of what you were being told. Truth is it's hard to love yourself sometimes when you're constantly reminded of the flaws you have. The world does that to you. It just points out your shortcomings, mistakes, failures. I'm not here to point figures at the world though, but it's important for us kweens to be aware of our environment. See we live in a type of world where obsession with looks is more important to us than character and the goodness of people. We are all about image.
There are some girls out there who don't love themselves because they don't look like the tall, skinny, beautiful girls they see on tv. There are some kweens out there who need a little inspiration, a little help when it comes to loving themselves just the way they are. The way I see it we are our sisters' keepers. We're suppose to support each other, give council and inspire each other.

Sometimes you have to love someone, to show that person that it's okay to love themselves.

Loving yourself isn't an overnight thing at all. It takes time and much effort. I don't have all the solutions but I do know that the road to self acceptance has a beautiful and fulfilling journey awaiting every kween. One filled with tears, and admittance, dressing up, going out; coming home and crying all over again. It's a long process. Some may move faster than others, but we are all different, all unique, all special. Just know that there is someone out there that is feeling the same way you feel and going through the same struggles you're facing.

So go out, put on makeup, do something adventurous, dress up and go no where, write poetry, sing loudly, go visit a foreign country, take countless selfies lol, surround yourself with music, fashion, art, and all the things that make your soul rejoice. Do whatever makes you feel that self worth that every kween has inside of here.

Give yourself some love babe. After all, you're a k w e e n.

Love Kamilah. <3
