This video underscores something that to me is more of an issue and I think can be worse than physical appearance. Feeling that people don't like the way you look on the outside isn't as hard to deal with, and doesn't have as far reaching effects, I think at least, than feeling like people are ok with you on the outside, but don't like the real you on the inside. To be honest, that's the situation I'm in personally. I've never had people tell me I looked weird, in fact, I've got more good attention than bad, partially from the obvious hair color of mine, but other feedback reflecting on ME, has steered me down a path of thinking that people don't think much of me, don't like me, or at the very least don't really care one way or another about me(with a few exceptions). Both, on the physical stage and on the inward, are challenging to get over. It can be very hard, and positive self talk and being in a good relationship(that can really backfire) are not always easy options, or even possible. Hmm, well, I find my fingers running away with me into the negativity spectrum. Positive thoughts positive thoughts! Lets give people around us positive feedback, let them know good things about themselves!SACnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449255540951766363.post-52689048073923979292012-03-16T10:51:31.546-04:002012-03-16T10:51:31.546-04:00beautiful.

It was about a child burn victim, and his learning to deal with his situation. I didn't get a chance to watch it, but the title really stuck with me. Whether we think we are pretty or ugly, that's not who we are, and we shouldn't let it affect how we treat ourselves and others.Jesse Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11297276413059243445noreply@blogger.com
