Self Images

I am big on being who you are and happy with who you are and what you look like. I seen an article on the HUMAN BARBIE. She is from Ukraine. Her name is Valeria Lukyanova. She does look like Barbie.

No this is not a doll. This is her. She had all this done to perfect her body. And this is why people now a days suffer from eating disorders, self esteem issues, drug addiction, different men/women. I'm not saying that this is the only reason why people struggle with these problems, but this is a huge reason. Women and men perfecting their bodies because of how society wants us to look. Music videos, actors/actresses, and the way we are raised and taught is how we pick our mates. People say I CHOOSE MY OWN MATE. If your father was dating a certain type of woman, you would follow in that path. Young girls want someone like their fathers. Young men want someone like their mothers. It's all in how your parents raise you. It's all in how you allow society to control that much of you.

It's not right that we, as people, believe that unless we are perfect, no one will love us. It's not true. To find love, you must love yourself. And I honestly hope that our society will change the perception on this. I hope you as a parent, or when you become one, that you will teach your child, societies views are not the ones to follow. And that you teach your child that the values he/she should follow and respect are the ones that include morality, honesty, and love no matter the size, look, color, supermodel or not, athletic type or not. Teach your children that society has a twisted way of looking at images, and how people should be.
