Description A Monster Like Me
This song stuck in my head now.

Lately I was thinking a lot about ''What does beauty mean''. Some people are really shocked when I tell them that I don't have any problems with my appearance. I don't look in the mirror thinking what is wrong and what I would like to change.
Of course, there is a lot of things I don't like in myself. But honestly? I don't give a shit about them. And that's what I say to people who are depressed because of their bodies, faces, whatever.
I'm happy of who I am.
What is the meaning of weight, height, skin, hair... when you have so many other things?

You can walk on your own legs
You can create with your hands
You can see
You can feel
You can smell
You can live your life.

Why do we focus on things that doesn't really matter instead of being happy of what we have?

And don't put comments like ''If you're disabled you can't walk on your own legs'' because you know what I mean. And being disabled doesn't mean that you can't do other things.


Don't give a shit about other people's opinion. That's true - you can work on yourself.
But if you're gonna hurt yourself... don't even think about it.
You don't need to be perfect.
Just be yourself, and love the fact you are.

Well, titles of my photos are almost always based on titles of the songs. This one as well ^^'
Just when I wrote the title I started wondering if I should write some of my thoughts here.

Also, I think a lot of people think call themselves ''monster'' when they have problems with their appearence.
