It doesn’t make sense to
call ourselves ugly, because we don’t really see ourselves. We don’t watch
ourselves sleeping in bed, curled up and silent with chests rising and falling
with our own rhythm. We don’t see ourselves reading a book, eyes fluttering and
glowing. You don’t see yourself looking at someone with love and care inside
your heart. There’s no mirror in your way when you’re laughing and smiling and
happiness is leaking out of you. You would know exactly how bright and
beautiful you are if you saw yourself in the moments where you are truly
YOURSELF.
This is the most beautiful thing I've read in a long time. I liked it so much that I read it out to my roommates as well. :D

DeleteWow. This is a beautiful post.
ReplyDeleteMost of the time (Or all the time), we just don't realize it. We feel happy when someone compliments or sad when they say otherwise. But we keep forgetting how beautiful we are with/being ourselves. May be we just don't realize it or just don't look at our inner self.
Take Care and Keep Writing. :)
