TEEN ADVICE
….I thought I was the ugliest girl alive. You see, no one told me that when boys tease you that means they LIKE you. I thought they hated me. I also thought something was wrong with me because I didn't start menstruating until I was 15; and I didn't have my first romance until I was 21. Well, now I am 40, and I have learned that some girls menstruate as late as 21, yes 21! And you know how they say what's most important is "your inner beauty." I always hated hearing that until I understood what it really meant. What it really means is that when you truly relax and are your authentic self, you begin to connect with your inner divinity and can't help but accept and love yourself and your quirks. As a result, you radiate love and charm; people are then drawn to you and want to help you, love you, and be your friend. When you are truly relaxed, you stop TRYING to be pretty, TRYING to be nice, TRYING to be smart, or TRYING to be what you think others want you to be. When you are truly relaxed, you are one with your essence, your inner wisdom, your goddess, your god, all that is. This is your true beauty, and you won't know it until you experience it for yourself.
