I Dare You Look Up and Try to Mold The Skies

I'm pretty sure that in the past week I've listened to this song over a hundred times. I love it. Beauty Redefined by Jules Morrow was written for the Beauty Redefined website created by Lindsay and Lexie Kite. Their goal is to help women recognize and reject the harmful messages in the media about our bodies. Their Beauty Redefined program has been running for two and a half years and has gone from a simple blog to a (almost) government sponsored "business."

Their new song was written especially for people like you and me. It was written in a way that shows you how beautiful you truly are. Like I said before, I love it!

The first line: "Take back what we let fade away." Let's take back healthy and search for true beauty within ourselves instead of beauty on the outside. Let's be the "voice of tomorrow" and stop depending on the "product of yesterday" to make us beautiful. Because we already are beautiful. "And once you feel it, you will never be the same."

I love the chorus. "All that we can do is strut, now make it loud." If we're going to change the world we need to make it LOUD! "Toss passion to the proud whose views are simply misaligned." Decide for yourself what beauty is, don't let others tell you what is or isn't beautiful. "Ask the brave: 'Step forward help us straighten all that's been misshapen, torn and barely left alive.'" Love! I challenge you to be brave and redefine beauty with me. Life live beautiful-ly

"We need beauty redefined."

"You're captivating, don't be captive to the lies." So true. Don't fall into the trap of "fake." Be real. Be beautiful. "I dare you look up and try to mold the skies."

Make up your mind that you are beautiful, don't let anyone tell you otherwise! "Make up your mind and not your face, we all know it is a happier chase. And in the end you'll finish out the race."

"We need beauty redefined."

1 Peter 3:3-4 says, "Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight."
