*repsonse to all those that asked "how do i feel that way again?"* Everyday should be a "i feel beautiful and special" day. To many spend minutes, hours, days, weeks, months. looking in the mirror or looking at themselves and finding something wrong with what they see or what they think they see. What everyone needs to start doing is look in the mirror or at themselves and say one positive thing about them selves ever day. Well for some, they should have to do this 2 or 3 times a day. A lady i've come to like and adore as a friend is a good example. she's beautiful, funny, kind, open, accepting and loving, and did i say beautiful? *s* yet sees herself poorly. How do you tell someome how wonderful they are when they refuse to listen? I myself used to always laff at compliments or only see the bad. I still have my moments lol but I like myself now and I know i might not be the prettiest or the smartest but i have something to offer others. I have myself. *s* Not everyone is going to appreciate me, but that is ok too. You have to except and love yourself and admit that you are special and beautiful in many ways and you always have something to offer someone. It's taken time and work but when i look in the mirror now I see someone special and beautiful, even if only in spirit. Lord knows i have flaws both physically and personality wise but those are things i can changee or improve with enough time and effort. I still have days where i feel like last weeks left over meatloaf, but those are few and far between. And mostly it seems to happen on those rare occasions when being single really gets to me. I have no problem with being single, but some days i really miss having someone to cuddle and talk to. We absolutely have to stop only concentrating on the things we dislike about outselves. It is counter productive and detrimental to not only ourselves but to the relationships we have with those around us. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ jali, i'm glad you are feeling so completely great and wonderful today. I hope it continues *huggs*
