The Insecurities

     Another huge problem of mine and I'm sure for every teen is being insecure about either your body or a way you do something. I know first hand this is a huge problem for me, always being worried about what people think about you or how you do something. For me i noticed I'm very insecure about my body and that's the case with most teens these days. It can be so hard to find those jeans that you feel like a model in and i notice that i always fat shame myself when i don't do a workout or have to much sugar that day.  Something i have to learn and I'm sure everyone can is Our Insecurities Do Not Define Us we have no label to the things we dislike about ourselves and we cannot judge our self by them.

     I reached out to a friend of mine who gave me this amazing word of wisdom and that is "We cannot live by the terrible lies we tell our self, if we keep telling our self that we are horrible people we will believe it" why i was talking to her i asked her about her insecurities and what she hates to do in front of people and believe it or not it was the same as mine. This showed me that i am not alone in this that other people suffer this same thing, so many teens keep all these feelings bundled up and then it just explodes and a lot of those feelings come from our insecurities.

     Simply look at what Stacy London said "Don't let fear or insecurity stop you from trying new things. Believe in yourself. Do what you love. and most importantly, be kind to others, even if you don't like them'' But in the end all i can say is embrace everything you don't like. Don't like your legs: Be grateful you have legs to walk! Don't like your clothes: think about all the children in need of clothes. We must learn to be thankful for everything we have instead of wishing for even better things. If you don't like something about yourself remember that you have the power to change anything. Stay positive darlings!

The Breakup

     Let's face it, breakups are the worse, especially for girls like me. For some people they hate dating to begin with, being tied down to a person isn't always the greatest feeling, and for other people being with that special person is the best feeling. For me i have a friend who is in the middle with it, yes dating can be fun if you do it the correct way but in other cases it can turn out bad.  However, my friend has learned a lot from her past relationships that i thought would be good to share with anyone who may be starting to date or just need reminders.  We all know the basics like if the Boy or Girl is cheating then it probably not the best relationship to be in but i want to go deep with something my friend went through which is Communication.      Communication is key in a relationship and without it the whole thing can fail, and my friend learned that 1st hand. She had such a strong relationship that was 3 months at the time and once summer came around it starte
