to bloom once again
Throughout history, women have been taught to value their beauty as their only quality of worth. Women have been told that they must constantly improve their appearance, not even for themselves, but for their future husbands. The need to follow the social norms has led to people drastically changing their appearance through the use of makeup and plastic surgery in order to cover imperfections that are deemed unattractive. It is now time for women to take back the narrative and standards that have been placed on them and reclaim their natural beauty and embrace their imperfections. Our appearance is beautiful the way it is, and we cannot let others dictate the way we look and what is considered attractive.
unlearning is a part
of the journey.
relearning is a part
of the blessing.
