Reality VS Online

Look at each of these photos.

If i posted these individually over a period of time would you know they’re the same? not likely..

you see, images can be manipulated and changed so much that you can completely change the vibe. 

This was the original, bright pink and vivid with colour on a warm summers day, where as the two edits look cool and dull- colour changes everything.

Now imagine that as pictures of people. You can change your look to ‘improve’ yourself. Take away spots, brighten your complexion and give off awhile new vibe from the photo you originally took.

See, we all are guilty of spending hours scrolling through social media, wishing we had different hair, different skin a better shape but who REALLY has all that? The person you stalk on social media because you believe they are ‘perfect’ uses certain lighting and angels to heighten their features, edits the photos to look a certain way.. this post isn’t to say everyone’s lying, it’s to identify that not everything you see is always what it’s like in reality.

There is no such thing as perfect, every single person has a different perspective of that word which makes it impossible, stop trying to live up to expectations you’ve created for yourself. Embrace yourself and the beauty that you hold. Sure if changing your hair, going the the gym and switching up your style makes you feel better then do it for YOU not for social media, not for your partner... so it for yourself, you are the most important person in the world so make yourself proud.
