What areas of your personality, background, physical appearance are you struggling to accept?
Physically...
I've become very comfortable with my body. But I wasn't always like that. When I was growing up I used to hate my pointy nose and my overbite. I hated being called the skinny girl. All of my friends were growing big boobs and curvy behinds. My older cousins were comparing their bra sizes and I'm wondering when will my body bloom into a voluptuous woman? I soon realized that I didn't want my body to always be the focus of someone's affection. As much as I would love to gain more weight and develop a curvy figure, I know that I am beautiful just the way I am, and if they couldn't see it then I didn't need them anyway. Beauty and confidence starts within.
Personality…
It is difficult to accept that I can't do it all. I can't make everyone happy. I can't make every event as much as I want to support. And be ok with it. I want to be there for everyone. But not everyone deserves all of my energy all of the time. Life will go on if I miss something. Sometimes I can be too nice to people just to keep things at peace. I avoid confrontation. I want to be in control (as much I hate to admit it.) The unknown can be a little scary. So I attempt to try to plan what I can. I've planned everything out in my head. So each day I try to just take life as it comes with patience, and accept the beautiful surprises, the good, the bad, the fun, the scary, and the moments that take my breath away.
