Do you want to be fake?

Allie over here posted this video on her blog and I thought I would share too...

How many times do we see a young woman in a magazine and think, "Wow. I want to look like her"?

Far to many girls and women think this thought in today's world.

This video really opened up my eyes.

I pray that you will be able to see yourself as "fearfully and wonderfully made" by God Himself.

You are beautiful...

I've seen this video a few times and it's definitely one of my favorites. I think our society needs to re-evaluate what it means to be beautiful. No one looks like the girls in the magazines, not even themselves!
thanks for sharing. Cute blog! :)

I wish more people would post things like this. So true... Everyone has their own beauty but they all want to have that worldly beauty they see on TV. :( The best beauty always comes from the heart.

How wonderful it would be if everyone learned to embrace the beauty that God has given them....however different in may be. :)

I've seen that video before but, I just watched it again twice. Really is fascinating how much editing goes into a face for advertising....if only we could realize that all the time with all the images we are bombarded with huh. Good stuff!

Oh my gosh I saw this a couple weeks ago and I was in shock! I wonder how much editing they do in most magazines.. the media is ridiculous. Thanks for sharing (:

I wrote a research paper on this subject a few months back, and actually used this video as one of my sources. It is such an eye opener!
