Who You Are

OK, so this is my first "official" post

The song i chose for today is Who you are by Jessie J. You can find the song with lyrics on the video playlist:) I love all of the lyrics to this song, especially the beginning of the first and second verses. In the first verse, she starts off by saying: i stare at my reflection in the mirror. why am i doing this to myself? I think that is true for so many of us-we look in the mirror and do not like what we see, but i love the chorus because she says: seeing is deceiving. The beginning of the second verse says: brushing my hair do i look perfect? i forgot what to do to fit the mold. Again, that is so true. we try to fit each mold of who others want us to be. The chorus is another thing i love about this song. my favorite part of it is the last few lines: tears don't mean you're losing, everybody's bruising. just be true to who you are!

Introducing: insideout

Hey,
My name is ReNay and this is my blog, insideout. This is not a blog about my life or me rambling on about my day, but this is a blog about BEAUTY! No, I am not giving make-up, hair, or nail tips, but I will give tips on how to feel beautiful through something we all love...MUSIC! I will post a song about beauty every other week, and then the following week I will post a "beauty" challenge. We can listen to how to feel beautiful all we want, but actually practicing it and living out that confidence is how we feel beautiful. I hope you guys like it! Tell your friends and comment with song ideas, your take on the song, and even your "beautiful" story.
