Love is louder than the pressure of being perfect!

Life takes different paths than we expectedwe actually make decisions would not like, but everything in life is pure physicsit is action and reactionI'm here to talk about two issues that I knowfrom personal experience: Bullying and Bulimia.

Both suffered by childrenadolescents and youth, in most cases canbe prevented when detected by parents and familybut there is not always such a vision on the part of parents.
I actually do not blame them for not noticing because often thevictims of these evils are still smiling at maintaining a seemingly normal life, hiding behind a smile pain who is in their hearts.
♪ It's amazing what you can hide, Just by putting on a smile ♪

I decided to write about this for two reasons, first to praise the singer Demi Lovato for her courage to speak openly about this, andalso to prevent and help other young people who go through thissame problem. You need not be perfect, I know that maybe yourmind that you repeat: "People will 
accept you if you more lean" is not true, I arrived at the pinnacle of my leanness and had fewerpeople on my side than when was healthy, because this depressionmakes us antisocial, aggressive and we became unstable and his speech
"I'm fat, I need a diet" is exhausting too much even for our friends.
"I literally did not know why people were so mean to me. And when Iasked them why, they just say, 'Well, you're fat. " 
(Demi Lovato)

Just do not let what people say about you affect you, I know it's hard, it's a daily struggle between yourself, but fight and stay strong, stay healthy. I've been through dark days, crying in front of the mirror wondering if there was any reason to exist I honestly did not found it, until the day I met a very special person who always stood beside me, but I had not noticed the presence Him until the day he spoke directly to me and told me I was special, and that He had chosen me for something great, I find Jesus!
He changed my life, made
​​me realize that I was hurting not only my body, but the temple of God, that hurt me was hurting to God (the Creator) who formed me so eerily perfect. Maybe people will never accept you, but God will always accept you because He created you, He loved you first, before the world began He had dreamed with you, as you would be, God is a loving father.

Porting that you're reading this now, pass this along: 
"The love of God is louder than the pressure of being perfect."  Jesus loves you! You're special, let the light in you is seen by everyone around her, and never let it shine!

  With Love, Luana Mattos
