The Bully From Life - DARA LY

The bullies only pick on you, not because you are too weak to fight back. They pick on you because they are afraid of you. They are jealous of you. They are not as good as you. That’s why they do all kinds of things to hurt your feelings. To make you suffer. To convince you that you are ugly, weak, or bad.

They try to make you look bad so that they could look good. They want you to feel insecure. Do you know why? Because they are the ones who are insecure. They know that better than anyone else. That’s why they want you to feel the same way.

The problem is most of us really believe what we have been told. When your friends tell you that you are stupid, you believe them. This is sad, but, unfortunately, this is the reality that we all live in right now. People tell you that you are ugly, and you believe them, so you begin to hate yourself. You are not proud of being yourself because who you are is not acceptable by the standard of your society. Your friends may not like you. Your cousins may not want to talk to you. People in your society are ready to criticize and willing to reject you. They want you to believe that you are ugly, and you buy into that idea. That’s why you hate yourself. You hate the way you look. You hate the way you speak. You hate the way you think. You hate everything about yourself because you believe you are ugly. You are never happy!

I hate to tell you that, but you are not that ugly. In fact, you are beautiful. Trust me, I can tell when I see a beautiful person. Human being is, indeed, one of the most beautiful creatures, ever created by The Nature. Anybody who tells you otherwise is either a liar or a fool. You either fool or lie to yourself when you think or say that you are ugly.

You might be fat, or you might be skinny, but you’re not ugly. Do you hear me? You’re not that ugly. You might be too short, or you might be too tall, but you’re not ugly. Do you hear me? You’re not that ugly. Okay?
