Julia Roberts:
“Perfection has become an obsession for many nations. We pile on makeup, inject Botox, and starve ourselves to reach the ‘perfect size.’ We attempt to fix things that don’t need fixing, while neglecting what truly matters.
Do you know what that is?
It’s our soul. Our soul needs care and nurturing. It’s time to focus on that. Honestly, how can you expect someone to love you if you don’t love yourself? After altering your appearance, can you honestly say you’re happy with who you are? No. I want you to understand something clearly: it doesn’t matter how you look on the outside if you’re empty on the inside.
Today, I want to make a statement: I’m done with makeup. I don’t want to wear makeup anymore because I’m tired of hiding behind a facade. It’s time to drop the masks. Yes, I have wrinkles, but I want to see them. I am the real me, and I want you to accept me as I am.
Do you realize that artificial beauty standards dominate the world, trapping us in illusions about appearance? Instead of living true to ourselves, we are pressured to conform to these imposed ideals.
But you know what?
I’m done with it. I say to myself, enough. I challenge all of you to stop and remember who you truly are and what you really want. Remember your true self.
No one can ever be 100% beautiful. Appearance should be the last thing valued in a person. What truly matters is the soul.
Never forget that.”
These are incredibly true and powerful words! Our generation focuses so much on external beauty, often neglecting our inner selves. But as we know, there must be harmony in everything.
