Writing back and forth to a friend of mine, a conversation that can be had and should be had and thought of by all:
Being honest, your flawless beauty is intimidating today. I felt the need to put on coverup because of my breakout. I feel fine now. I’m blaming you for being beautiful.
We tend to see our own humanness in a bad way. It’s not even flaws, it’s just being human.
Just another reason for us to feel like we’re not enough, right? As if somebody outside of ourselves has a right to create our own expectations. Probably another reason I loved the rugged beauty of nature. Nobody tells everyone is ugly, how would they, how dare they.
Nobody tells nature that it’s ugly. And we are nature.
Because humanity has a voice and we process differently than everything else in nature, we feel like we can say whatever we want and a have an entitlement to be heard. And if people don’t act in what we consider a positive change according to our own voice, we see that as negativity and ignorance.
Entitlement and privilege are a major human problem.
