Don't HATE Me because Im Beautiful....

I have to share this. This is from a very wonderful, caring, creative soul. I love this girl & her style. She has made time for me to make me feel just as creative as her. Anyone as busy as her to take the time to be nice to little ol' me.... well.... you just have no idea.... it means everything to me. I haven't talked to her in so long and she too hasn't been to blog land in sometime. I happen to visit her blog & came across this post. It made me ball. Tears just poured out. I guess I just needed to get it out to someone else that isnt in this home. Im a mom to 5 girls. beautiful girls. super special, talented & smart. I am so lucky... but you know that saying ~
"don't hate me because im beautiful" ~
well.... it really means something ~ and HURT & PAIN ALL feel the same regardless how (excuse the words, but just for example,..the words we hear:( ) : Thin, fat, rich, poor, smart, dumb, black, white, short, tall, man, women... it hurts all the same.
So people.... next time you want to judge someone, don't judge until you know them to make a judgment. Don't hate others for what they HAVE & what YOU do not have. WE ALL have a story. We're all trying to make our way in this caotic world. So please think before judging.
AND mostly..... watch what you say infront of your children or others children. Do not make them into little mini haters.
Jealousy makes you ugly. makes anyone ugly.
This is what she wrote on her blog:
" WHY I DO WHAT I DO ~
These three girls are why I dream bigger than I ever thought possible. Why I make myself to go out of the box, further and further every day. They are why I push myself past my limits, why i am so darn hard on my self...and why i never give up, on anything. They are why i don't take no for an answer...They are what drives me to make lemonade when life gives me lemons...
I want them to see what daring to dream really means...
I want them to see dreams take work to fullfill....nothing comes easy.
I want them to see that they can do anything....anything!
I want them to see they can blaze their own trails....and i will be there to cheer them on indeffinately.
I love you girls....more than you will ever know."
Thank You Marah, Your my Inspiration.
Best Wishes sweetie,
Joelle XOXO
* Title was not serious. Just to grab your attention.
There was a time in my life I didn't turn the light on in the bathroom, because I hated me. The way "I" thought I looked.The same girl whom modeled in a bikini on stage in front of hundreds.So I have good days & bad days. Just like everyone else. Hurt feels the same whatever size. & every "skinny girl" isn't a bitch or shallow. and believe it or not...."skinny pretty people" sometimes are more sad & lonely than what people think. Don't Assume!
So I finally deserve to think im beautiful once in awhile. Im working on it.
*Check her blog out! TONS of inspiration and lots of links to great things!!! & fellow artists...
Next time your in the art & craft stores (Hobby Lobby, Micheals etc.... Look for her NAME http://marahjohnson.com/ & Buy some things to get creative with , just to support a special mom who desesrves all the best!
& Just because it would mean alot to me.I bought a bunch of things of hers. I may use them (LOVE LOVE LOVE IT ALL) or I may just keep them to treasure them knowing there her designs. OK... I'll buy more to get creative & show her what I did. But you know.... we ALL have to support the ones we believe in.
IF you know of her already or created anything from her designs PLEASE share them here & let me know. K?
