The Woman within Him

Acceptance to once self is the first step to real beauty
A qoute that reminds me of someone close to me.I've known him ever since we are young,he was a quiet boy with a nice brown eyes ,we never get along together because he was one of the boys playing pranks on girls even if we share the same neghborhood.I remember it was in 5th grade when we finally get to know each other well together with two of my other girlfriends.He was no longer the quiet boy we knew back then,he was no longer the way he was.He was everywhere teasing with the girls and flirting with the campus hottiest.He was so loud and everyday with him is never a dull moment.When everyone was stressed and exhausted with all the study loads and upcoming exams he was the one who sets the cheerful vibe.He is the light of the party,he was dancing with the cheerleaders on intramurals and organized programs at school events.He onced complained not being around girl scout camp but gave us that naughty smile talking about being sorrounded by boys on the other camp.He was like that until 8th grade though we are not classmates we still goes home together.He was then absent for two days and when he's back his eyes were swollen and bruises on his skin,we asked him why but then tears fail down on his eyes.He was beaten by his older brother because he was caught dancing on heels and wearing lipstick on his lips.Hes father accepted him but its his older brother that could not bare the persona he has choosen,after two more days of staying quiet he bounced back on the 4th day with a smile and never looked back at sad times sinced then.We onced ask him that if by chance a kiss of a woman would bring him back into a man,who would that be,he quiclly said Britney Spears so we laugh and tell him will thats the safest way to say youll never changed.He became a creative and a confident person till we graduated.We then became busy at our own lives and never got a chance to talk again.The last time i saw him he still have those clean cut of a boy,youll only noticed the other side of him when he throws his hand in the air and wave at you like beauty queens do at pageants.
Then came 2014,he was now out ,he was now a pretty woman,she was now wearing make-up and feminine dresses and grows her hair too.She was now a freelance make-up artist and florist and she had boyfriend too(foreign guy).She told me that she only waited to become finacially stable to stand on his own.
I wrote these mini biography of him because October is his birth month and i wanted to share and celebrate with her the colorful 29 years of his festived life.The life of someone loving himself first so he could gave gave more love back to others especially to his family without expecting something in return.
