A woman named Fran Harris wrote a book with this title but this message is not similar to the contents of that book.

I am writing about a matter that affects many “sophisticated” ladies.

Few months ago, I watched a most horrifying video about a lady who put breast implants. She boarded a plane and most of the men were admiring her “full bosom.” She must have felt on top of the world.

Unknown to her, the doctor used fake implants and as the plane was in motion, it “affected something in her system” and the implants burst. Sadly, she lost her life. On top of wetin? Like Warri people will say!

My question in this piece is this: Woman, why should you alter the “real you” in the name of sophistication? God does not put trash together. He created you as a masterpiece and feels grieved each time you try to alter your natural look.

If you want to look “more beautiful,” use makeup. Accept yourself the way you are. Altering your natural looks by bleaching and all other enhancements may appear right initially but the end result is not palatable.

I used to “hate” myself especially when I was much younger. I felt I was TOO TALL and TOO THIN and did EVERYTHING to add weight. Today, I see ladies sweating it out in the gym, doing several weight loss programmes just to look like me but I “have it natural.”

Now I just love tall, trim, trendy, tantalising me!

Ladies, please love yourselves. Celebrate the REAL YOU. You have the BEST BODY in the world because God created you.

Let the REAL YOU STAND UP PROUDLY!
