Thanks, Anika and Lightbulb. I know it could be worse, but I know how this world judges us by age and looks. It's hard to accept yourself when you don't see yourself as perfect. I look back on my graduation picture in my mom's home, and while I was a bit overweight, I looked beautiful. I don't mean that in an egotistical way, but I liked how I looked then, but for the weight. And I'd love to be at that weight now! Youth is magical, and so often unappreciated by its owner. I at least knew I loved being young, and wish I could stay that way. I want to be free to wear what I want, be flirtatious (if I didn't have a boyfriend, that is), not be afraid to say sexy and funny things about my looks, etc. I try to remember I look better than I'll look at 80.
