JUST THE WAY YOU ARE
Some of us, think that we are too big
While some of us, think that we are too small
Some of us, think that we don’t know enough
While some of us, think that we just know it all
Some of us, think that our hair is too short
While some of us, think that our hair is too lengthy
Some of us, think that our hair is too straight
And some of us, just think that our hair is too kinky
Some of us, think that our lips are too full
While some of us, think that our lips are too thin
Some of us, think that our nose is too pointy
While some of us, think that it’s too smashed in
Some of us, think that we are too short
While some of us, think that we are too tall
Some of us, think that our breast size is too big
And some of us, think that we don’t have any at all
Some of us, think that we are too dark
While some of us, think that we are too light
But ALL OF US, WERE MADE IN GOD’S IMAGE and HE MADE US ALL JUST RIGHT!
I love you just the way you are.

March 1, 2011 at 1:40 pmThank you, ladies for your support and comments. I found them both to be very touching. Often, I have to remind myself of this very thing and although society may change its standards of beauty every season, we can rest assure that God remains the same and no matter what the season is HE LOVES US, JUST THE WAY WE ARE."
