Sadly, I think all mirrors distort.



Backstory

ok, it's not really the mirror. was just thinking about many truly lovely people i know who don't believe that they are lovely. i wonder if ANYone has an accurate self-image.

"Nobody ever told you...Shine like a diamond, glitter like gold, nobody ever told you..." Your memoir reminded me of a Carrie Underwood song I really like. "Take off all your make up, girls, shine your light, show the world."

Thank you. I needed to hear your memoir today and use some windex on myself. Thank you.
