When I used to look at myself in the mirror I saw acne. I didnât see this beautiful girl everyone always said I was. I saw dark circles, scars, teeth that werenât perfect. It has taken me the entirety of my 23 years existing on this plant to realize I am beautiful! The days I was covered in acne, the days I was flawless, and today with my acne and scars.
Donât get me wrong I am still on the verge of returning to the old ways. Not necessarily that I want to return, itâs more of a âIâm familiar therefore I am comfortableâ type feeling but rationally I tell myself âwhy would you, youâve made so much progressâ
But..
The unknown is a scary place, itâs hard to step foot into something when you canât see where it leads. Itâs important we venture though, it allows us to change, grow, learn things we never thought were possible until we realized that it wasnât that hard to try in the first place.
