Hey, it would help me a bunch if you could fill in these sentences.

I am beautiful because...
I am strong because...
my favorite part of my body is...
One thing that is worrying me right now is...
One thing I'm looking forward to ...
I'm different from my closest friend because...
I'm similar to my closest friends because...

It's a step to loving yourself. I'm going to put them together and it will be really cool. It will help you relfect on yourself and how wonderful you are. if you can please finish the sentence and then leave it in a comment
I would really appreciate the help!

Taking the world by storm, obviously.

Have you seen it yourself yet? Have you witnessed the storm of people and organizations who want to let the whole world know that they are beautiful. There are so many people doing everything they can to let the people everywhere know that you matter, we all matter.

There are so many people that feel so alone, in fear that they are not enough. What we don't realize sometimes is that there are a bunch of place where you can receivve support. I know that this is identical to my last post but between then and now, I've stumbled on a lot of support places and it hit me that the world isn't filled with heartless people despite what so many of us have thought for so long. It turns out that there are many people who have hearts big enough to love themselves, the people close to them, and, saving the best for last, complete strangers!

I'm thankful for each and everyone of them. Although I see all these people with big hearts spreading their love everywhere, I know that there are still people who will judge and disrespect others and they probably always will. It still gives me hope that so many people try each day. Thank you so much beautiful people!!!

girls with guts :)

A 12 year old girl who was sick of the bullying at her school created a website that could serve as a safe place for girls to gain confidence or talk to someone when they feel alone. Her courage and willingness to help really inspires me and gives me hope. We need more girls who are brave enough to stand strong for what they believe in despite what others will say. At 12 years old, I probably would have just dealt with low confidnece by crying in my room or ripping up a lot of paper. I'm glad that she started this website. She knew she wasn't alone and felt the need to help the other girls who were probably in the same situations. I don't know her, I just saw her story on the news one morning but I am SO proud of this girl! She is helping so many people. Check it out! http://girlswithguts.org/


this would be her awesome Mission Statement:

"Girls with Guts is an empowerment website to give all females, regardless of age, the confidence to stand up for themselves NO MATTER WHAT!!

This website will be a place where females nationwide can come to relate with others about problems they may be having in school, work or at home. It is Girls with Guts mission to help instill the confidence a female may need to overcome bullying, peer pressure or violence.

Confidence comes with self-worth. When a female knows in her heart that she has value and that she means something she can overcome any problem life may throw her way. At Girls with Guts we know that sometimes it is easier said than done, but when you come to this website know you are not alone. You may be having a problem that someone 1800 miles away is also having. We can get through anything TOGETHER!

For those situations that can't be fixed with a pep talk or advice we can refer you to someone that can help if you want us to. This website will always give you the option to maintain your anonymity.Lastly Girls with Guts will be a place to make true friends...the type of friends that help you get through the hard times and celebrate with you in the good times!

Save Young Girls

Look at this video. Is it not the cutest thing you have ever seen? What's even better though, is when you look behind all the cuteness and hear her powerful message! It is so beautiful yet so so sad that girls have to grow up in a world where society has already put an image on beauty. It's so great that she already has a great view on body image. Her message is amazing! "Stop trying to look like someone else to make yourself beautiful. You are already beautiful in every single way." I just love this video! Such a strong and beautiful message!

:)

you're beautiful.

You are beautiful and that will never, ever change. No matter who you are, regardless of race, sex, or class, you are beautiful. The scale and the mirror doesn't tell you how beautiful you are. You don't have to look like a model to be beautiful. You just have to be yourself. We were all created beautiful so regardless of what you've heard, you will always be beautiful just because you're you. Nobody is perfect. "Imperfection is Beauty" You don't have to change. You're beautiful just the way you are.

it's the truth. don't ever forget it. don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

92% of girls want to change at least one aspect of their appearance. Dove believes all girls deserve to see how beautiful they really are and is committed to raising self-esteem in girls everywhere. That’s why we created the Dove Self-Esteem Fund.”
