Growing up, I was really aware of my freckles because they stood out a lot. I have such a pale
complexion, and I was bullied badly by other kids at school. I know that my mom had the same
problem as me when she was a kid, and we both looked different from other kids.
Luckily, I've grown up, and now I live in a city where people are a lot more accepting, and I
often get compliments on my freckles. Even so, I hate seeing posts on the Internet that say
things like, "I love all my imperfections, even my freckles!", because for me, my freckles are
something that I am proud of, and I prefer to show them off and not cover up my freckles with
make-up. In the end, I think what I realized is that the only person who needs to think you are
beautiful is you.
Some people believe loving your body means loving every single part of it. However, it can be
normal to have areas of your body that you are sometimes less confident about. Despite this
concern, these areas do not define you. By shifting your focus toward the parts of your body
that you love, you may appreciate your body more for how it looks.
One way to focus on the parts of your body that you love is to practice gratitude. Take time
each day to consider what you're grateful for, including your body. Another way to focus on the
parts of your body you love is to dress in a way that accentuates those areas. If you love your
legs, wear shorts or skirts that show them off. If you love your shoulders, opt for off-the-
shoulder tops. You may become more confident and empowered by highlighting the parts of
your body you love.
Finally, try to surround yourself with positive influences. Unfollow accounts and limit social media use if it makes you compare your body to others. Instead, try to follow accounts that
promote body positivity and self-love. Surround yourself with friends and family who uplift
and support you, and steer clear of those who make negative comments about your
appearance.

One of my most standout features is a birthmark on my face — it's quite big, but I never
thought much about it because I was always taught that there are more important things in
life. I didn't think about removing it because it's a part of me.
When I was younger, I realized that none of my dolls had birthmarks on their faces like me. My
mum talked to me about it, so I didn't get upset, but I did realize then that I look different from
other people. The funniest thing that happened to me was in one of my school pictures - for
some reason, they removed the birthmark in the picture by editing it out! I thought it was
interesting because the picture didn't look like me at all.
Anyway, l've always thought that having something different about your face is a good thing,
and I just wanted to say that to anyone who might feel uncomfortable about not looking the
same as everyone else.
