You have the right
To be who you want to be
To do what you please to do and make mistakes
Not one time, but many times
There are no limits.

You have the right
To do what you please with your body
It would be the best for you to respect it,
But if you do not want so it is your decision
Because it is yours and no one else’s.

That is why, you have the right
To gain and to lose kilograms,
To be seen as “better” or “worse” according to “Them”
And to like yourself despite it
To love yourself despite anything.

You have the right
To embrace your imperfections
Your “love handles” and your cellulite are You as well
And your acne, and wrinkles,
If you do not embrace them, who will?

You have the right
To work on improving yourself,
And to be compassionate with your mistakes
When they arises,
Because it is your right to screw it up as well.

You have the right
To accept that you can be only yourself
No the models that society imposes
And to learn that if you change to be liked
They will always find something new for you to change.

You have the right
To explore your weaknesses
To understand your vulnerability
To stop being ashamed of yourself
To embrace Yourself.

You have the right
To be imperfect
To your beauty in the way that it has been given to you
To be who you are and not anyone else
That is your treasure.
