Man In The Mirror

So I'm sitting at work listening to Musiq's "So Beautiful" and the last verse of the song repeats itself by saying "Baby don’t you, baby don't you know You're so beautiful (beautiful, beautiful)"x4 and for some odd reason I began to think about my appearance when people see me. Now lets not get anything twisted around, I know that I am a beautiful African-American woman but for the simple fact that many have a self-esteem issues concerning themselves gets me to wonder about their appreciation for their-self. Last week I was watch a special on TLC about a 17yr old girl from Haiti who was born with a disease that expanded out her face to a way that most kids feared being around her because they felt she portrayed a monster. She portrayed more spirit than most females my age and she knew that her condition was un-explainable but that did not take the pride/joy she held within herself. My whole outtake on this is, be THANKFUL for the reflection that you see on a daily basis, for many women out there who can't bare to look in the mirror just imagine if you were her.....
