There are a few things about my appearance I've known for a long time. I know I have an awkward face, it's not pretty in the way some faces are. My jaw line is too strong for a woman. My nose is too pointy and long. My eyes don't twinkle or reflect light properly. My hair never falls just perfectly without some energy from a blow dryer. My lips aren't immaculately sculpted in a cupid's arrow nor is my chin equally memorable. With that being said, I've been starring at myself more and more in the mirror and as a result I'm realizing how lucky I am for all the awkwardness that has resided here for the last 28 years -- some new thanks to getting older and some permanent thanks to my parents.
So, yes I'll never be good enough to be that girl and that's not bad.
If I may say something without being reprimanded.
ReplyDeleteI say this as a person that's read every thought posted on this blog (lost count after my fifth time through)
You have an impeccable heart.
Your beyond that girl.
I can go on and explain to you how perfect your facial features are but I wont.
I will say one thing though.
Even though your eyes may not "twinkle" or "reflect" light properly, the reflection that you go through when viewing something through your eyes speaks louder then any physical twinkle one can attain.
You can see the beauty and light in everything.
that's much more important then any physical trait.
