Me. Me. Me.

I think everyone has those days where you feel absolutely disgusting to the point where you don't even want to look into the mirror. I'm currently having one of those days today. I'm sitting in my room with some old ratty shorts and a t-shirt because it's 98 degrees outside and the humidity is at 85%. I'll basically melt if I step out of my house.

But, I woke up and looked in the mirror this morning and wanted to cry because I hated everything I saw. My arms are too fat. My face is too round. My legs touch. My nose is too wide. Everything was wrong with me. How could I not have seen these things before? Why didn't I notice the redness that flooded my cheeks in an awkward way? Why didn't I see how noticeable my crooked tooth is on the bottom row of my mouth? How could I not have realized these things yesterday?

I came to realize it was just because I was in a bad mood. I wasn't feeling up to being awake for the day. I didn't feel this way yesterday because I was confident yesterday. I had a good night sleep. I ate properly.

I guess what I'm trying to explain for myself is that looks are based off confidence. I look the same today as I did yesterday, but I was happy, cheerful, and well rested yesterday. I still had the same face and body, but with a slightly different attitude.

We all have those bad days and sometimes we need to roll with the punches and notice the good things about ourselves before we deny them.

This is me. One of my favorite "selfies" that I have taken. I need to remember on days like today that I can be pretty, I just need to have confidence.
