it's all about perspective

I posted this on Facebook, but I felt the need to share it here too. Because... just because

I was scrolling up from the bottom of my flist, so I saw the photograph before I read the text--and my first thought was, wow, that is such a beautiful picture. Having now read the text, this so MUCH MORE a beautiful picture, because there's so much peace and affirmation and love to your words. Thank you for sharing this moment with us! <3333

You are so sweet. Thank you. I must say, I'm pleased with the giant smile in the pic. But then, my favorite goofy uncle is sitting next to me. It's very likely he's entertaining us all with his antics again. Heehee.

Lovely pic! It's so nice to see you. *waves*
I've had kids call me names and it did hurt me at first but now I won't let people that don't matter to me have any effect on me.
((hugs))

Good for you, I'm so glad you can love yourself, because so many people can't

Sadly, there will always be ignorance in the world, and that ignorance is the problem of the people themselves, not the ones that ignorance is aimed at.

As someone far cleverer than me once said, the people who matter don't mind, and the people who mind don't matter.

It's wonderful that you can rise above the cruel comments and appreciate your true beauty. *hugs*
