Perfection. Flaws. Thin. Fat. Beautiful. Ugly.
These are all terms that tend to circle around in my head when I see magazines, or watch movies, or read articles in mainstream-media.
When I go to the mirror after having these words circling my head, I only see bad. My "flaws" stand out and scream at me. Voices whisper how I must be disappointing to my husband, because I'm obviously not good enough. How I must secretly be the "ugly" friend of my various circles, and I don't know it.
The past few years, God has been working with me on a daily basis, to change the way I think. To re-wire my brain, and re-focus my spirit.
This video really hit home with me - I Am Not "That" Girl. It's not exactly how I feel, point for point, but it's close enough to stir emotions.
I know I'm not the only one who feels this way - obviously, people are talking about it more and more. So, for any other person out there who feels like they're not the idealistic "perfect" person/image/model, I hear ya. This may help.
