THE BIG FAT LIE
Why do people tell lies? What is the essence of telling a
lie? In fact, what is a lie first of all?
A lie is a distortion or withholding of the truth. It is when
a fact is hidden or a refusal to state a fact for most times a selfish reason. According
to me; it is selling an idea that is false.
People lie for different reasons. Most times, human nature
makes us lie to ourselves because we are not strong enough to handle the truth.
Sometimes, our minds tell us lies. Still a lie is a lie because it hides our
insecurities.
What is a “BIG FAT LIE?”
A BIG FAT LIE is exactly what it is, A BIG FAT
LIE.
What then is the BIG FAT LIE in this situation?
Look at this scenario that tells a very familiar story.
Growing up as a big, bold and beautiful young lady, you were
constantly insulted, bullied and criticized for the wonderful way God made you.
Right from childhood, you have been sold the idea that you
cannot be who you want to be and do what you want to do because of your size.
Right from childhood, you have been sold the idea that you
cannot wear whatever you want and look good in it.
Right from childhood, you have been sold the idea that you
cannot find a good man that would love, respect and marry you for who you are
and not only for what you look like.
Right from childhood, you have been told the biggest lie of
the century; that you are not beautiful and attractive because you are not a
size 8-12.
Well, here is the blunt truth.
Forget society’s perception of true beauty and embrace those
God-given curves.
Society says you have to have chiseled abs, long slim legs, a
long, thin neck, high cheek bones, slim arms .etc to be beautiful.
Well, get ready to love and accept those curves because if
you are a big and bold woman who knows what she wants and goes for it not
minding what people say, you are beautiful.
If you are big, bold and smart and you are doing well for
yourself in your chosen career field, you are beautiful.
If you are big, bold and fabulous, knowing how to combine
various styles and colours to put together something that makes you look good, you
are beautiful.
If you are a big and bold woman with a healthy self-confidence
who would not allow any man trample on her emotions and self-esteem, you are
beautiful.
Most of all, if you stand out as a big, bold, strong, amazing
and independent woman; you are beautiful.
Therefore, don’t allow individuals and society’s opinions
about you change your positive perception about yourself.
Also, the propagators of this BIG FAT LIE should stop it today and spread the
truth to make the world a better place.
What is this truth then? The truth is that BIG IS THE
NEW BEAUTIFUL.
