i_am_me Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Not sure if this where I am supposed to post this but I just had the most wonderful realization! I am always so upset with myself and thinking I'm not good enough. About an hour ago I stared at myself in the mirror and realized how beautiful I am. Sure, I'm not a size 6. I'm not tan. I'm not wearing a pound of makeup and I don't have the sideswept bangs or bleached blonde hair. But I am gorgeous. Classic beauty. I have huge hazel eyes (brown and green) and full pink lips and regular sized ears. I usually have clear skin unless I'm PMSing. My nose is not too big or too small. I have brown spiraly curly hair. It's not even frizzy if I style it with the right stuff. I have a size c cup chest. I have a curvacious body. I'm tall...5'10. I have white skin. Not pale white but creamy white and it all is the same color seeing as how I burn instead of tan. I have really long fingers which I use for playing the piano and guitar.That's just appearance wise! I'm smart, I can cook amazingly. I can sing, though I can't dance. I am really great with kids. I love to read and write. I can argue like nobody's business (I'm kind of a dork though for saying it like that lol). I am an awesome person both inside and out. I'm sorry if I sound really self-absorbed but I just got really happy about who I am and had to share it with somebody. I have always been told that I am beautiful by a lot of people and I am just now starting to believe it. I've always had low self esteem but not anymore. I'm not going to live by the world's standards. I'm going to live by my own. Link to comment
AwdreeHpburn Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Hey I am me - good for you! It's a hard thing to realise and prolly an even tougher thing to say, so ....good for you! And I agree with you. You ARE a beautiful person! Link to comment
Daddy Bear Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Reading about your revelation made me feel happy. Love and celebrate yourself forever! Link to comment

sddeaston Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 It is nice to see a post from someone who honestly appreciates themselves. That kind of thing is rare anymore. Congrats!! Just keep this post in mind next time something not-so-good happens, so you can keep your spirits up anyways. Link to comment
i_am_me Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 It's really weird. I still feel really good about myself! I didn't even have to talk myself into it. I just looked in the mirror and was like wow! I just wish that everyone else could feel as good about themselves as I do right now. Link to comment
equinox Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Well that's good for u but don't let yourself think that you are better than anyone else simply because you are beautiful. You have a gift, be happy for it and don't look down on thouse that don't have it. Link to comment
redrose85 Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 i am me- I just had that same epiphany a few weeks ago. we all have our days where we look in the mirror and go "ugh" but for the most part, I love me, and I feel beautiful, smart and sexy. it's the best feeling ever, huh?

rocio Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Good for you. You are your own worst critic, so if you can genuinely convince yourself that you're beautiful, what more could you ask for? Now just don't forget it. Link to comment
denisemarie Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 I'm not going to live by the world's standards. I'm going to live by my own. I once fell in love with a 89 y/o man that was one of my hospice patients. It wasn't the way he looked or anything like that, but the smile that came on his face everytime I entered the room. He made me feel beautiful b/c my youth made him feel alive. Beauty is what makes us warm inside. Everytime I make someone smile I feel beautiful from the inside out. I hope you all feel this each and everyday! Link to comment
