You Are Art

Have you ever looked deep into someones eyes?
Have you ever looked at your veins close up?
Have you ever looked at human tissue or a cell under a microscope?
Have you ever just taken a second to look at how beautiful humans are?
You probably hear this a lot, especially if you’re on tumblr; but honestly, I find every part of a human so beautiful and artistic. I’ve noticed the connection between the human body (inside and out) and the sky or the galaxy. Honestly, they’re not different at all and once you notice this I feel like you can take a different view of the world.
Some people draw art, some people are art.
Everyone is beautiful and every part of a human is art, is poetry.
I cannot describe how it feels to look at someone after you realise that you’re just made up of so many atoms just like the night sky. There is all these tiny atoms, whirling around to make up a human and you are stardust. You have stars in your eyes and galaxies running through your veins. You are beautiful and nothing can take that away from you. You represent the galaxy because you are your own galaxy, your own infinity and this is all you should ever view yourself as.
I take biology at college and you wouldn’t believe how many cells there are just looking out for you, each doing their own thing to make sure you survive and to make sure you’re doing okay. Fighting infection, killing bad bacteria. They all just want you to be okay, they’re all there just to protect you and I like that.
These cells inside you (which, themselves, look beautiful under microscopes) work so hard to keep you looking healthy, to keep you feeling okay.
I think my favourite post on tumblr is one that compares human features, which are usually ‘looked down upon’ compared to flowers to show that you are beautiful. Have you ever looked at a flower and found it unattractive or displeasing? I haven’t. Similarly, humans are all beautiful, every single one of them. Maybe you find someone unattractive but that doesn’t mean they aren’t beautiful, does it? 
The great thing about the human brain is that everyone’s is wired differently, just because one person doesn’t find you good looking doesn’t mean no one else will and you’ll never spend your life being unattractive.
Please do not let anyone tell you that you’re not good enough because you have galaxies inside of you, growing and increasing, you are a human with a life and you will always be good enough; no matter what anyone says. All the time you’re making an effort to be a good human, you are a good human. No one and nothing will ever take the stars from inside you so never let anyone take the glimmer from your eyes as you speak about something you love. Don’t let anyone tell you that sparkle isn’t enough; everything about you is good enough.
Never forget that.
