There is a quote by Nikita Gill that has resonated with me lately: "If all girls were taught how to love each other fiercely instead of how to compete with each other and hate their own bodies, what a different and beautiful world we would live in". When I first read this verse I thought “Wow, how completely true!” Growing up in the modeling industry, I constantly compared myself to other girls. I thought I needed to act a certain way, dress a certain way, and be a certain way in order to be accepted. Nevertheless, it was a long journey for me to understand that there never was, and there has never been, a competition. Comments are closed.
