Description
One of the things I was told multiple times growing up, by folks who meant well, was that I had "weird, different, almond-shaped" eyes. That the "ideal" eye for a girl like me was doe-eyed; round. Like a doll's. If it wasn't my eyes, it was my face. Or shape. Or chin. Or legs. Or hair. Or anything folks could nitpick. I struggled with this for quite some time; so many aspects of myself I found to be 'less than ideal'.It took me a long time to realize that uniqueness isn't something to overcome-- it is a blessing in itself to be cherished. That appeasing the masses won't make you any happier at the end of the day. That there are people out there who genuinely, truly love you for YOU, not an altered version of you. I am so very thankful for that.

You'r eyes look fine. Beauty standards can sometimes come inΒ useful, but oftentimes they are quite stupid.

Bless your words and every other part of you, it's always so so good and helpful to be reminded that we are not alone in our struggles, and that we can overcome

Your eyes fit you really well. At least, in my opinion. They're beautiful.

ImΒ nick pickedΒ all the time for my body daily as well. A good thing to think about is that none of us are normal or fit certain standards. We have to embrace who we are! The world would be so boring if we all looked perfect. They see flaws, but I see beauty c:

Omg i've got almond-shaped eyes too! Thankfully nobody never teased me for them.
If there was anything that I got teased for it was my feet and legs. I'm very pigeon-toed and i've got a little bit of knock knee.Β
