It's always the late night documentaries that somehow make me stop. They make me step outside of myself and hopefully from these (indirect) experiences I take enough away to permanently alter myself and my perceptions of the world.

This time around the documentary was Jess: My New Face. In it is a 16 year old Jess, and I'm proud to say that what

i don't think anyone is going to feel completely beautiful everyday of their lives because we feel like we could be skinnier, fatter, taller, shorter, whatever. because of this, i think it's enough just to have just a few minutes or hours of a day, or maybe the entire day, of feeling beautiful. it gives a small hope on those days you feel ugly because it's like, "i felt beautiful yesterday; maybe in a few days, i'll feel like that again."

telling myself that i think i'm pretty when i feel like it has done a lot for my confidence to be honest. even if it was just a few minutes, it really did. i used to be really self-conscious and had low self-esteem and never thought i was pretty or anything, but those few minutes made me feel better for a little bit, and over time those minutes became longer and longer, and now i feel that i'm pretty decent on most days.

i don't know why i'm saying so much hahaha. i'm glad you feel beautiful, not because you are, but because you deserve to feel beautiful. love you, sammecakes. ♥

Thank you ♥
