Hello, Future Me.
I know when you look in the mirror sometimes, you hate what you see. You hate your face, you hate what you weigh, you hate the way your hair lays, you hate your big nose and sometimes you even hate your blue eyes that everyone loves and raves over.
Let me tell you something.
You. Are. Beautiful.
You are beautiful and you are fearfully made in the image of God. God has designed you in such a way that is unique to you. Don't look in the mirror and compare yourself to others because that's just trivial nonsense. You have no idea how much work goes into making celebrities the way that they do. You have no idea how much time your friends may spend in the mirror trying to make themselves look the way that they do. You are beautiful just the way that you are.
Hello, Past Me.
I know people growing up told you that you look like a boy, they hated your teeth, they didn't like the clothes you wore, they wished that you looked different and they said those things to you so often, you started speaking them over yourself.
Let me tell you something. '
You. Are. Beautiful.
You are worth so much more than what stupid guys may say, you're worth more than what those girls at school said and you are worth SO much more than those thoughts inside your head. I know you struggle with depression and anxiety but don't let that overtake you because you are stronger than that. '
Hello, Present Me.
You're finally starting to love yourself and I am proud of you for that. Love yourself no matter how you look.
Let me remind you of something, though.
You. Are. Beautiful.
Even though you're starting to love yourself, you need reminded of that every now and then. You're so strong and so independent. I am so proud of all that you've accomplished. You're working so hard to get everything you need and you never stop looking for more ways to make money. You're working on your relationship with God instead of finding your worth in guys and that is a big accomplishment for you. You've got it baby girl, just keep trucking and do NOT let the haters get you down.
All in all, my dear, you're becoming a beautiful woman of God who is transforming every single day. The world is your oyster and the sky is the limit. I cannot wait to see where God is taking you and the things that you are going to accomplish.
Remember one simple acronym for true happiness in life my dear.
J.O.Y.
Jesus
