it seems like girls dress to impress and love to get attention... but we don't need to attract every guy on the face of the planet... and not even twenty or five. it feels good when i realize that all i need is one guy... one amazing guy to look my way and think, "hey, she's a pretty cool girl."... that's what i remind myself when i feel down on myself... because i'm not looking to impress the universe, i'm just looking to find that one person... that one guy who is just right for me, someone who loves me as i am, not because i try to dress to impress or wear layers of makeup to hide myself, but someone who loves me for all that i am, all my mistakes, blemishes, and ugliness... realizing that it's scars that make someone even more beautiful... that it's through hard times that a person flourishes and becomes not just ordinary but magnificent, and through that is substance, rather than mere surface beauty that will fade.
if every guy turned when i passed, i would worry that i cared too much for my outer self and not enough about my heart. i love feeling beautiful, and i love feeling noticed, but i don't want anyone to only love me for how i look... i want a man to fall in love with my heart, with my soul, with everything that is not material, with the substance of who i am... not with my choice of fashions or the hairstyle i don or the shades of makeup that happen to be pretty on me.
just one. for who i am.
