Ugly Duckling

(Killeen, TX, USA)
Motivational notes kept me going
I was 23, and all my life I thought I was ugly,
which depressed me a lot.
God bless I had a good friend,
who wrote me little notes like -
"I am pretty", "People love ME", " I look good" etc.
He posted them in my kitchen, entrance, bedroom, bathroom.
Every time I saw them I had to smile.
He always told me, that I have to love myself at first,
and then others will love me too.
It took me 2 years, but then I believed it,
and I was proud of myself.
It was the first time, that I loved myself -
and believe it or not -
other people loved me too.
The best thing is, I don't care anymore what I am wearing or how I am looking
I feel good no matter what,
I never lost my smile anymore,
and people love my SMILE !!!
