You. You were never free from struggles and bounds. You probably struggled your way through your mother's womb to be born into the lovely world just because you are a girl. You were never free from the curfew that bound you to your room or the prescribed length of your skirt or even the acknowledged size of your dreams. There was someone you loved- someone around whom your entire world spun until the day he left you without even a proper reason only for you to realise you were never on his list of priorities.And then there is always someone to hold you back, bring you down, make you feel sorry for even being existent. But there you are still standing in spite of everything, still trying to make it through all odds. That is certainly a thing to make a toast to.

Someone called you fat or flat cause of your body type or self obsessed for taking a selfie or shallow for loving to shop or insensitive for correcting someone's grammar. You felt sad-maybe even devastated and so many times, probably thought of changing yourself for good. But there is beauty in devastation since broken crayons still colour. If you change yourself for good, just think who would even play the role of "you" on the world stage. You aren't perfect; but you are unique with your own set of perfect imperfections. Take pride in being who you are because it's only you who can be truly you. Your body type doesn't matter as long as you embrace it and carry it forward like our own treasure trove of embellishments. Your face is pretty as long as you look at the mirror and smile at the optimism in you. Just like everyone else, you have limitations but you should work to remove them only as long as "you" feel it's vital to your well being.

To the girl who thinks she is flat, just flaunt that size 4 with elegance. To the girl who's hurting, pick up the shattered pieces of your life and build a new frontier on the bases of dreams, ambitions, self love, dignity and the hope that one day, true love will come your way. To the girl who's thinking of giving up, just give it another shot, will ya?  And to the girl who's doubting herself, just look at the awesome self that you are. Follow your dreams, take the road less travelled by, admire the mountains on your way, dance at the sound of the rain, feel the dew drops on your footsteps, laugh like the roaring thunder, sip your favorite cup of coffee and chillax and above all, fall in love with the gorgeous "you" every day a bit more than yesterday.
