It’s a shame that live in a world where we are judged on the way we look like rather than what we have in our hearts. It’s been happening since the dawn of man and while some people can cope and adapt others cannot.
Rachel Farnsworth is best known for her recipes on social media. Between YouTube and Facebook she has over 600,000 subscribers. Not only does she have those mediums she also has a blog and a published cookbook.
Her videos usually deal with cooking but she just made a powerful statement that dealt with one person who as really nasty to her on her Facebook page. That video has been seen by over 10 million people.
From FaithIt:
“I recently got this comment on my blog,” said Rachel. “‘You look like you are 70 with your gray hairs. You really should consider dying them for TV so you don’t look like such an old hag. Just a suggestion.’”
Instead of responding with hate, Rachel responded with a harrowing story about her past and the health struggles that will likely prevent her from ever turning 70.
“My husband actually feels very strongly that I shouldn’t dye my hair, and his reasoning is that he wants us to grow old together. How cute is that?” she said. “If you read my ‘About Me’ page, you’ll find that I have a rare autoimmune disease that means I will mostly likely never live to be 70 years old.”

That made you think didn’t it? Rachel’s message is timely and will no doubt have a positive affect one someone’s life. We all can’t be caught up in the way someone looks or by the trash people say. We have to keep fighting and moving forward.
Thanks, Rachel.
