We all need a little encouragement on days when we feel less than our best. I promise, there is nothing wrong with giving all of yourself to volunteering to work a church lock in, and staying up to finish that 15 page paper, so that you have no energy or desire to make yourself look presentable. While this is sometimes just what the doctor ordered, other times we unwittingly bash ourselves for our imperfections when we slack on physical or material appearances.
On days that you may think yourself to look messier or uglier than a dog, here's proof that you more than likely look nicer than these breeds! (Notice I said nothing about smelling good...)
Disclaimer: I love dogs. So, before you get upset that I am exposing the true ugliness of some of these breeds, know that I am in no way bashing the dog breed itself; I'd love and keep any and all of them if I could get away with keeping them in my dorm. Dog lovers unite!

There you have it — I'm about 97 percent positive that you look better than these dogs even on your worst day, so take heart, you actually don't look that bad.
Although it's true that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, keep in mind that an amazing inner-self will always be much more beautiful than any physical or material attributes could wish to be.
As it is written in 1 Peter 3:3-4, "Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight." My hope is that you will find your self- worth and esteem within the Lord's vast love for you.
Never forget you (and your dogs) are amazing!
Now, go have yourself a good hair day!
