Because I Like You.

2014_0723_causeilikeyouYou've probably seen this video from Colbie Calliat? I embedded it below if you haven't.I get a little bit teary eyed every time I watch it. Do I feel like I can't keep it together? Why yes I do sometimes. But its no big deal. I've read some negative comments about this video while I have also seen a really positive reaction as well.I see how it could be argued that this video is "anti-makeup" which I guess is a thing? So to that point I agree wholeheartedly with the idea that if you like to wear makeup there is no issue with that- in fact I like to wear makeup. I like to take a moment to put myself together and put a little effort into my appearance. There is nothing wrong with that whatsoever.I don't think that is the point of the video though- I feel like this is more about how the media portrays women. I believe this video is about how it is a beautiful thing to not look like a model. It is a beautiful and empowering thing to look in the mirror after you take off your makeup and love who you are.Bonus! Just like last time - you can download this as a iPhone or Android background. :)
