Summary

This quote highlights the importance of self-acceptance and self-love in a society that often dictates beauty standards. It emphasizes that it is not vain or superficial to believe that one deserves to feel beautiful. Women, in particular, are often conditioned to believe that they are not worthy unless they conform to societal norms and expectations. However, the quote encourages women to challenge this narrative and instead appreciate and embrace themselves as they are, promoting a mindset of cherishing one's own unique beauty and rejecting the concept of needing to meet someone else's standards.
