Hello, my name is Alexis, and I too feel this way, all the time actually. I have days where I don't think I'm pretty enough, or skinny enough, or smart enough. This has always been a struggle for me, but I am trying to work on it.

So trust me, you’re not alone. I know many people feel this way on a day-to-day basis. Sometimes we let society and social media get the best of us. There are images now that give us a false perception of how we have to look. There are days that I just feel like I can't stand to look at myself, or I fear that I will never live up to the standards of what people want me to be, but its just the insecurities talking. In reality, we are perfect the way we are, flaws and all. We are who we are and we are meant to be this way.

I know that it may be a struggle to always remember that you are special and are always going to be good enough because I struggle with it myself.

I know that people may tell us differently than what we think, but it is our own minds that always remind us these terrible things. Its hard to overcome, and can even be a constant worry for some people. Sometimes, all you need to do is set yourself a reminder, and always tell yourself, YOU ARE GOOD ENOUGH, YOU ARE PRETTY ENOUGH. I am who I am, and I’m proud.

It's not something we overcome within a day, it’s something we have to work at every day of our lives. It will get tough, but I know you can do it. You are strong, hardworking and more than “good enough” in every way.

But, just always remember you are beautiful inside and out, sweetheart, and no one can ever take that away from you.
