Beauty is Skin Deep

Ok, so I just recently cut my hair to my shoulders after having it half way down my back for about 4 years... and can I just say... that people are so effing rude! They talk as if my hair was what made me who I am. I get comments like it looks alright but it looked so much better long. Regardless, I do get people who like it a lot better.. Now I know that people have a right to their own opinion but honestly, nobody should ever tell a girl that has shoulder length hair that girls with short hair look like boys... sorry, it's not right. Do I need to start saying to boys with long hair that they look like girls?? But they don't, so I guess I won't. When are people in this world going to learn respect?! And maybe I'm being a little overdramatic but I'm tired of people trying to downsize me... and this isn't just about hair.. the hair thing is just adding on to everything else that people try to down me on. Beauty comes from the inside-->out. It starts with your morals, your values, your kindness towards others, your respect for others, YOUR CHARACTER... nothing else. I learned it the hard way. Let's hope that you don't have to.
