i hope someone didn't post this before. but anyhoo.

i wanted to post this in the girl's locker because i think it's a great and inspirational reminder.

hope you girls like it. it makes me smile every time. _smile.gif

this leads me to ask the question: have you ever doubt yourself, or found a flaw in yourself, but later on accepted it as a part of who you are?

i hate the moles on my face for the longest time because i was the only girl with 'dots' on her face. but as i matured, i really didn't mind having them. they're distinct.

I've seen that before, but I agree with everyone else: it's a cute commercial. Inspiring too. There are probably better examples out there, but for the longest time I hated my boobs. I remember begging my mom to pay for plastic surgery so I could have them removed. Although I never really accepted them as part of "me", I've grown quite fond of my "buddies" because they earn the kind of attention that every hormonal, young adult female craves. xD Lol

Yeah, I've doubted myself a lot before.
First, I used to hate being the height that I am (5'8", or 5'7" when I was in 8th grade). I thought I was too tall and that I'd rather be an average height, and it was annoying that people would always say, "How'd you get so tall? I wish I could be tall like you." Now I love being 5'8" and realize that my mom was right when she told me to be grateful for my height.

Then I used to hate my hair. I hated that it wasn't as sleek and smooth as almost all other Asian girls' hair was and thought I should get it straightened, but then I thought, "Well so what if it's not as nice as I'd like it to be. My hair is the way it is and it's not as bad as it could be," although some days I still don't like it.

Awww. I love Dove throb.gif
Sheesh, I can't tell you how many things I used wish I could change about myself. I've just recently come to the understanding that this is how God wanted me to be and how I was made, and changing it would be changing me.

Yess, I had a very low self-esteem, maybe a little still, but now I make my flaws part of me, not a[part] of me. I use to get picked on cos i have big ears (at least they are bigger than norm, but yeahs) and When i was younger i was tall, skinny, flat chested, and nerdy...VERY VERY low esteem. But now that i've matured i learned not to care about what other ppo think, and I [am] beautiful, inside and out. AND NO ONE can tell me otherwise cool.gif

I still remember the first time I saw this, and I was all teary and cheesy and all that. What really got to me was that "Wishes she was blonde." line. My God did that sound like me. I don't want to be blonde anymore, but I literally did when I was younger. I thought life would be easier; foolish of me, but at the time it felt like the biggest truth in the world.

I find lots and... lots of flaws in myself. it makes me feel really vain sometimes, but I never stop wanting to change parts of myself. I don't see how I could personally accept error like that.

This is me personally. I dunno, I have different standards for myself then for others, perfection wise. ermm.gif
