There are a lot of people that speak out against judging others before you understand their full story but the fact of the matter is, it happens more often than ever. Not only do we see it in real life, we see it on social media with people sneaking pictures and making fun of others when they really should be minding their own business. Everybody has their own story and unless you know that story for yourself, you’re going to get something wrong about what is taking place in their life. That’s what took place with this girl, and she was being bullied and shamed because of her weight. In the end, she was able to turn the tables and teach us a valuable lesson.
”This is my first week at the gym and every night after work, the same three girls are there. Today I found out they have been snap chatting pictures of me and making fun of me, but I don’t mind.” She explained.
”I’m glad that you haven’t gone through what I’ve been through. I use to be in shape, I broke my hip and had to give up all exercise. Then my grandma got sick and I took care of her full time, I couldn’t leave her alone because I had no help, so I gained more weight. Then she died, and I ate my feelings and gained more weight. Now I’m a size 22. I don’t hate myself, or my body. I love who I am, and that took me my entire life to be able to honestly say those words. I love myself.
”It really sucks that society, and your parents raised you that it was okay to try to hurt someone that’s trying to better themselves instead of trying to lift them up but I’m not mad. Thank you for reminding me to keep pushing after I had a really long day. In a month when the new year shit has worn off, I’m still going to be dieting and working my ass off at the gym everyday. It’s not so you, or anyone else, will except me. It’s for me.
”I hope anyone else, who feels ugly or is over weight and has decided to make a life change will keep going.
Forget the skinny girls who laugh at you, or the muscly men that tell you you’re gross, love yourself.”
Let’s teach love, today’s world needs it.
