Beautiful.

You deserve it all…

Everything beautiful…

Everything fine…

It should be yours…

Because you make this world beautiful…

Not cute or sassy or awesome or nice…

But beautiful…

You make this world Beautiful…

Beautiful as in the way the African woman swerves her God-given curves to every pulse and nerve of the beat of her drum while her contorted distorted, yet all the while graceful body shares her story with the world because she knows overcoming after stumbling…Speaking up after mumbling…Being confident after tumbling down a dirt road destined for nothing is…

Beautiful…

Beautiful as in a breath of fresh air in the Spring during tumultuous times

Beautiful as in the way the clouds take shape

Beautiful as in the heart of every adult who still sheds a tear while watching The Lion King

Beautiful as in the way flowers bloom and blossom

Beautiful as in the feeling you get in the pit of your stomach or the very core of your heart when you tell the person who means the world to you…

You are beautiful…

And if no one ever tells you…

I’m telling you here and now…

In this moment…

You are beautiful and you deserve it all…
