Don't Call Me Beautiful

The easiest thing is to tell a girl - you are beautiful. But please, don’t.
Instead, tell her how you admire her courage. Her flaming self-respect.
Her sincerity, her cleverness, and love for the others.

Tell her, you admire how she cherishes the simple bits of happiness in life,
her commitment to what she believes in
and her eager for a new adventure.

How she dances at the night to a silly song,
the energy, how she empowers the others.
Compliment her kindness, her uniqueness. 

She is full of life and full of passion. 
Adorable,
Inspiring.

She has this vibrant energy about her, 
Tell her about her beautiful mind, 
her beautiful personality.
She is strong.

Our girls grow up thinking the beauty is the best value they have. Countless sources tell girls the importance of beauty, like it is the highest worth in us. And with time, we might start believing them. 

Next time, empower her. Tell her, her true value. Tell her something better.

With love,
