There might be some of you that read my blog name and think ''What the hell does that mean?'' and others who know what it means but may be thinking "Why is that her blog name?". I thought I would explain my blog name and the meaning behind it as it does mean something to me.
'C'est La Belle Fleur' - It's The Beautiful Flower
Blossom translated into French is Fleur which means flower.
Why French ? My second language is French. My whole family speak French and I'd say I'm quite fluent in it.
Beautiful ? No, I don't actually think I'm beautiful.
As a young girl I was teased for being overweight, for being too tall, for being 'dumb' and having a 'weird' name.
Constantly being reminded these things made me feel ugly. Growing up I've always been insecure about myself, my name and the way that I look. If I'm really honest I still am quite insecure about myself but I never let it bring me down.
Being a lot more mature now I understand that its okay to be different, and different is Beautiful.
C'est La Belle Fleur
