Body shaming is NEVER a good call

Hey y’all! Now I did have something else planned for today’s post but I hopped on Instagram this morning and saw something that basically broke my heart. We are in a very good place with body positivity these days. I’m not saying we’re at the end goal yet (which is basically to me everybody no matter their size or shape or whatever being able to go out in like a thong without having to feel like their less than because they don’t fit the societal mold) but we’re getting there. Slowly, but surely. There are body positivists everywhere, on every social platform, you just have to look for them and surround yourself with their love. I open my Instagram and unlike before I feel safe and at home. I see envious curves, bendy ballerinas, soft beautiful bellies, androgynous beauties, sculptured blessings, unbridled lovers. I see variety, I see representation, I see hope. My Instagram has done a complete 180 and gone from content I would kill myself to achieve to content I appreciate, I’m grateful for and instead of hurting me, my Instagram inspires me. Albeit, sometimes life just gets too much and I put off all my social media till I feel strong enough to face it again.
