BEING A SHORTY

Philippines
August 13, 2018 11:54pm CST
Being tall seems to be part of mostly everyone's wish, but not all are granted that type of gene . A talent perhaps or maybe even something striking. The personality, the color of the eyes, structure of the face, and proportionality of the human body. And all, I'm contented of what I had. LOL

I was reading the comments and isn't it interesting how many of us wish we were something we're not.

@Cristi_Ichim That's true. We need to learn to be happy with what we've been given.

I am tall and full figured. This can be intimidating to many people, especially men.

@aninditasen Why is it intimidating? I think its because there is more to me than they can handle.

Everybody wishes what they are not, people should just be contented and make the best of what God or nature bestowed upon us. I'm taller than the average Filipino especially in my generation.

I'm short guy too but I feel happy when I saw someone smaller than me (bad) anyway, before I didn't like my height since I'm not too tall and not too short, and I feel embarrassed when there's "Find your height" and you're first on the lane which is you're the smallest on your class, I've waited for 8 years on that school to be graduated (since I'm always in the first lane of boys)

@Sammilita I know about being short. When I am in the grocery store I cannot reach the high shelves so I have to ask someone to help or find a ladder to climb.

@Sammilita There isn't always someone around to ask so I have to figure out how to get it down myself. I sit there and wonder why they have to make things so hard and do not think that not all can reach top places. Atleast at home I have step ladder and ladder if need to reach high places. Sometimes I see a ladder there but not always.

Nobody's perfect and somehow we will have our defects or imperfections in our body. But if we just accept that as part of ours that imperfection will not bother us. And will have a happier and contented life to go with it.

yeah, it's all in the genes.. but there are some supplements that can make you tall but they can have adverse effects.. It is better to just be happy with what we have there are pros and cons to both heights anyway

Everybody wants to be something they are not given. For example, those 'morena' with darker skin wanted to be fairer, those with curly hairs wants their hair straight and the list goes on. Somehow we need to have contentment

We all wish for superior genes. But I'm content for being petite. It doesn't matter much to me now. Our body is a great machine that can do all sorts of things. I adore my body because of the things it can do - see, feel, touch, work, walk, dance etc. etc.
