Happiness is Within Yourself

This post is for woman between the ages of fourteen to fourty.
Understanding is the first step to acceptance, and only with acceptance can there be recovery.” Joanne Kathleen Rowling




I was walking downtown - obviously shopping, when a tall, beautiful, flawless woman walked passed me and caught my attention. She carried a big, red leather bag that seemed too big for her puny body; This woman was annorexic. She looked as if i could push her over with my pinky, while causing severe damage to her bones. She was too thin.

Her name was Kimya. Kimya was a model, a starving model. She dressed very chic and walked with attitude. Kimya new she was beautiful, she knew that she caught everyones' attention but she didn't flaunt herself. Her ice blue eyes popped out of her face with the help of her jet black hair. Her hair was long, very long and shiny.

Kimya was beautiful. That was undeniable, however for some odd reason Kimya seemed sad. When i looked deep into her eyes i realized Kimya was miserable. She seemed depressed. Work had been very stressful for her, she had to much competition. Her agent was pushing her to lose more weight, or her job would be in jeoprody. She could not afford to lose more weight and she knew that.

Kimya took the right path, she decided to tell her agent to accept her for what she is or she would personally rip up their contract. She told her agent she was fed up with her pushing her around and she needed more respect. Kimya stood up for herself, she did the right thing because if she didn't it may have cost her life.

Kimya realized it was not all about being thin. She got tired of people critisizing her and of always watching what she eats. She is young, she has a whole life ahead of her and she does not want to ruin it because of some stupid modelling career. She is now in acting and has happily gained twenty pounds. Kimya is the happiest she has ever been because she is happy with herself and for herself and not for anyone else.

  1. "Kimya knew* she was beautiful". Besides that everything is good. I never knew anyone that was happy about gaining 20 pounds was she that skinny?

  3. I need to gain twenty pounds, Chris. I would be so happy if I do.
    But yeah, besides that, you should try taking yourself out of the whole thing when you're describing her, like Ms. C said before. Besides that and a little more work on your grammar, I still liked it. This was very in-depth. =)
