Publica historias de personas que inspiran

Kyle Jenner es la menor del clan Kardashians. Y estos días ha hecho noticia porque la chica de 18 años está usando la popularidad de su cuenta de Instagram (tiene casi 40 millones de seguidores) para no sólo publicar fotos de moda, sino que le está mostrando a la gente fotos de chicas que inspiran. Jenner empezó una campaña usando el hashtag #IamMoreThan (Soy más que eso) para contar la historia de mujeres que han superado el bullying. 

“Por los próximos 6 días, estaré compartiendo historias de 6 personas increíbles que se han convertido en héroes a su manera al tomar el bullying y convertirlo en algo positivo. Quiero animar a mis fanáticos a compartir algo positivo de ustedes”, comentó la chica en su cuenta de Instagram.

La primera historia que compartió fue la de Renee, una chica de 21 años que tiene un desorden genético que afecta sus huesos y rostro. Ella estaba nerviosa por cómo la tratarían las personas en la universidad y encontró la fuerza de superar sus inseguridades gracias al positivismo que vio en Tumblr. 

#Day1 – Renee DuShane (@ALittlePieceofInsane) a 21 year old college student who was born with #PfiefferSyndrome. Renee described it as “a genetic disorder where the bones in my face don’t really know how to fuse correctly so part of my jaw is really small. I had to have surgery when I was born so that my brain could grow.” Renee is so strong willed and a super intelligent girl who told me that while growing up she never had many issues with bullying. "I went to school with all the same kids all the way through high school. Right around senior year, I started getting very anxious about having to explain my condition to all of the new people I would meet in college. I started going on Tumblr and saw lots of profiles of positive, confident people” that inspired her to start sharing her photos even with her insecurities. “It’s so hard to keep myself from responding to the negative comments,” she told me. “Even harder is keeping my friends from getting angry.” It's so important to have a great group of friends. Renee also told me about the tattoo she recently got of her life motto: Stay Strong, Always Love. “Loving is always going to be a better place than hating,” she shared. Check out Renee’s Instagram @ALittlePieceofInsane – she’s showing the world #IAmMoreThan my forehead. I love you Renee! She is so awesome & inspiring. Renee taught ME that #IAmMoreThan the negative comments that I read.

La segunda historia que compartió fue la de Erica, quien recientemente se convirtió en la primera modelo de talla grande en aparecer en la portada de la revista “Fitness”. Kyle comentó que ella nos inspira al reflejar una total confianza con su cuerpo y que supo no tomar en cuenta los comentarios de quienes le decían que su cuerpo no le permitiría cumplir sus sueños. 

Otra historia que Kyle comentó fue la de Lizzie Velasquez quien ha sido llamada como “la mujer más fea del mundo”. Esta chica de 26 años padece una enfermedad congénita poco común. Ha sufrido de bullying, pero ella ha sabido salir adelante y recorre el mundo dando charlas motivacionales. 

#Day4 – I'm getting a little more personal… When Lizzie Velasquez (@LittleLizzieV) was 17 years old, someone posted a video of her on YouTube calling her the world’s ugliest woman. “By the time I saw the video, it had 4 million views.” Now 26 years old, Lizzie’s condition was diagnosed last summer. Lizzie suffers from a rare congenital disease that less than 10 people in the world are known to have. The disease impedes her from accumulating body fat; she literally has zero percent body fat and has never weighed more than 64 pounds, however though it is not terminal. Throughout her entire life, this condition has resulted in a lot of #bullying. It is so unacceptable to treat people like this. People are so quick to say horrible things about me everyday over and over and sometimes I can't take it. Even I at times get affected by it, I breakdown, I hide, I cry. It's resulted in a lot of anxiety for me that I've never had to deal with before ever. My every move has been documented for the whole world and its been a nightmare trying to find myself through all of this. And I've absolutely lost apart of myself. Lizzie, you are so strong and I admire you so so much. Lizzie has taken that negative energy and has turned it around by traveling around the world doing motivational speeches. When I asked her what the key messages were of her speeches, she told me that “Most importantly I try to convey that all you need to have is a brave heart to accomplish whatever you want to achieve. Let the negative build you up instead of knocking you down. You are enough no matter what; you were put on this earth for a reason” Soon you’ll be able to see her story on the big screen in the documentary film @ABraveHeartFilm in theaters on September 25th. Check out Lizzie’s Instagram @LittleLizzieV – she’s taking a lifetime full of bullying to help teach the world #IAmMoreThan the names they call me. #ImWithLizzie and Lizzie taught me #IAmMoreThan who I think I am. For me, this is expected it comes with the territory. But Lizzie, you should of not had to go through that. Let's change this together. I love you Lizzie! I'll see you soon.
