Beauty Begins
is written by a mother-daughter duo. It is a book about self-image and how we
should accept ourselves as we were created and shine that beauty that lives
within us. It was a great read and really makes you think about your self-image.
I have
always struggled with my self-esteem and self-confidence. I really can’t
remember a time that I wasn’t. There would be days I would really struggle with
looking in the mirror, because I knew I wouldn’t like what I saw. As I have
gotten older I have improved, but I still have those days or even weeks of not
feeling beautiful. I think I will always have that, I don’t think I will be
able to completely get rid of that. In a way, I think it’s natural and a normal
thing. But that doesn’t mean I should constantly be putting myself down every
day, saying that I’m not good enough.
Reading
this book has really opened my eyes about this subject that so many women and
girls are going through, including me. There are so many of us that think were
not good enough, not pretty enough. We keeping feeding yourself with negativity
and the more we do it the worse it gets. Instead of tearing ourselves down, let’s
build each other up and gain self-confidence.
This
book has made me smile and cry all at the same time. I have even highlighted my
favorite quotes in this book so I can flip back easily. I recommend this book
to any women or teenage girl that has every experienced a self-esteem or
self-confidence issue. I know I will definitely be sharing this book with some
of my friends.
