How to Come to Terms with Feeling Ugly

While doing homework one day, we came across this article on WikiHow called "How to Come to Terms with Feeling Ugly". There were 21 steps in all and by the time we got to the 21st step, we were disgusted. The list pointed out things that we (and everybody else) feel insecure about, but instead of making you feel better about yourself it kind of discouraged you to be who you were born to be. Although there were some valid points mentioned in the list, like always smile or dress to your own standards, etc, many of the points listed were telling you to act/dress like somebody else. We all feel like body image is such an important topic, especially nowadays. We feel that you should be comfortable in your own skin and not be exactly like someone else, because you were born the way you were for a reason! We want to spread the message that it is okay to look different from everybody else because that makes you unique! Instead of focusing all of your attention on how you wish you could change the way you are, focus your attention on making others feel better about themselves! The smallest things like smiling or waving to someone, could possibly mean the world to that other person. The point of this video was to attempt to make at least one person smile, or possibly help them feel better after a rough day. If you liked the video, then I'm so glad that we were able to make a difference. If not, it's okay! Maybe you can do something else to make others happy! :)
P.S We do not do any of these things on a daily basis
P.P.S We love Demi Lovato AND One Direction, so we were not insulting them, just using them to prove a point. (Because Demi Lovato is BEAUTIFUL without makeup on :) and there is no question that we would choose 1D over Gollum)
Thanks for watching!!!
