Wore a bikini and didn’t die of embarrassment

Most of my life I’ve worn a one piece/tankini style swim suits. As a teen I was not allowed to wear a bikini and in my mind I told myself I couldn’t wear one because I had stretch marks on my thighs that I got from growing. I remember being embarrassed thinking I was the only girl that got them from growing and that I couldn’t be proud of them because I didn’t get them from creating life. But as I’ve gotten older and hopefully wiser🤞🏻 I realized that all this time I’ve thought people would judge me for how my body looked when really no one is paying attention to me, so why was I so worried about stuff no one but me cared about🤷🏼‍♀️ so finally as a mom myself and at the ripe old age of 27 I wore a bikini for the first time😱 I almost chickened out but I told myself that if someone cares enough to judge me that they have way more problems than me with my stretch marks and cellulite. So I did it. And guess what? No one cared! Not one! In fact I saw lots of other women rocking their scars and cellulite! Seeing them made me realize how it really doesn’t matter! I saw plenty of hot ladies that had the same “flaws” as me and guess what? It didn’t make them any less beautiful❤️ we live in a world full of filters and photo shop that make us feel like things like cellulite and stretch marks make us less pretty, but really it’s all in our mind! No one cares! So I’m going to rock my bikini and feel like a goddess every summer from now on. So if your reading this just know you are beautiful just the way you are, so buy the dress, wear the bikini, get the hair color whatever you want, do it and feel like the badass beauty you are❤️❤️❤️
