Ugly Betty came at just the right time in my life. It taught me three important things.
Beauty shines out when it comes from within. No matter how much others claw their way up to the top with callousness and backstabbing, it’s always better to play it clean. Don’t let anything or anyone negative get in your way.
Although love may come and go, it is still a wonderful thing to experience. If being with the one you want seems difficult and almost impossible because life presented you with a problem—big or small—to keep you apart, then maybe they’re worth going after, because, in the end, the payoff will feel even better. Love comes with challenges, and it’s up to you to get through them.
Lastly, above all, what matters most is yourself. There will always be ups and downs, but a view of the world from the bottom isn’t as nice as one from the top. Your passion in life comes first, as it will always help you to move forward until you reach your dreams. Everything else is a bonus.
