A thought.

[effervescible]

Tonight I glanced at my reflection in the bathroom mirror and thought "I look pretty."

In a society that fucks with body image as badly as ours does, I think that's worth nothing somehow. We should be able to say things like that to ourselves more often.

You should always feel pretty!

Hell yeah! If you start feeling pretty, you'll start realizing this about yourself all the time ;p

It's funny you should post this now, as recent developments in my life have undone years of damage to my self-image. I have been thoroughly convinced that I am not only beautiful, but damn sexy as well.

That is a FABULOUS icon... I've been thinking for a few weeks that I've unintentionally collected a bunch of thin women icons. *kicks beauty standard and starts paying more attention*

I just want to say you look pretty this morning too.

Thank you! Ironically, I was sick this morning and sweaty and stringy-haired and generally how a sick person looks.

But under that, surely there was pretty. ;)
