Holly...I loves ya. *hugs* I feel your pain...and yet I feel the need to tell you the one thing we all know. God thinks you're beautiful and perfect :p I know sometimes it's hard to think of ourselves the way God does... but it's important to tell yourself that.
I totally feel you...it makes me sick that people think the way they do about people who are fat...it's the hurtful reality that it does matter what you look like and not who you are "on the inside". On the inside I'm a skinny beautiful funny white girl...too bad she doesn't come bursting out of this fat ugly body. Holly, you are beautiful to me...but I know I'm not the world. But I can say I know how you feel. Some times I would rather shoot myself and not have to endure this crap anymore...but I know that's not the answer either. God may think I'm beautiful...but God didn't make me this size...I did...so I have to deal with it. I wish there were something I could say to make you feel better...but I know there isn't. But we are in this struggle together. I love you and miss you!
Hope you don't mindmic_keyAugust 21 2004, 07:16:04 UTC
I hope you don't mind. I came across your journal and the "Stay Inside" poem meant so much to me. Also the "Fly Away" poem did too. My Grandfather had cancer and now he is free too. You seem like a really nice person and have added you to my journal.

I noticed you hadn't written in your journal in a long time, and found myself hoping you're well. Reading your words, you *are* beautiful, far from grotesque, and I'm sure others see it more than you realize. It's sensible to worry about your weight, because it can become a health problem. But I've known slender, downright glamorous women whose beauty was only a shell, destined to fade with the years. Yours will last. I do hope you succeed in taking off a wee bit just for you, because you want it. Slowly... both for your health and for your self-esteem. But if you could only see what your words convey, you would see true beauty.
