Weight vs Worth

Recently my father figure told me that 

I put too much emphasis on plus-size beauty 

and while I do agree that four days out of the week 

I do find myself to be rather cute. 

I do not believe it is because I am plus size. 

Sure it gives me more obvious curves, 

but that is not what I believe makes me beautiful. 

I believe I am pretty because of the way I carry myself 

and the confidence that shows through me. 

Even during the times, I don't actually have it, 

I've made it a habit to let self-assurance exude from me, 

because let's be honest, 

I have always been the type to fake it until I make it. 

On this journey of finding acceptance with my body 

the best words I've seen on the matter is 

"You are not fat, you have fat; you also have fingernails, 
but you are not fingernails". 

I do not wish to be called beautiful because of the weight I carry 

but because I don't let my weight carry my worth. 

Remember, Confidence is Key, 

and your worth is so much greater than your weight.
