Challenge of the Day

True contentment comes from within.

No matter how many people say you have such good qualities and such a lovely face or lovely hair or whatever beauty you may possess, if you can't find it within yourself, you're bound to feel that their compliments are nothing.
So today, let's treat ourselves as our best friends. When you catch yourself thinking about something bad about yourself,

STOP RIGHT THEN AND THERE

and think if you heart your own best friend says such and such about himself/herself, what would you have told him/her? Then say the words you'd say to your own best friend to yourself. And let's EMBRACE ourselves WITHOUT comparing ourselves to other people. Let's watch ourselves in the mirror and STOP your thought when your mind starts forming something negative about yourself. No matter how many bumps, scars, zits you have, YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL. Even though you have some fat in your belly and flabby thighs, YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL. YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL. YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL.

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!!!! EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US IS BEAUTIFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE!




So you may not be as "intellectual" as such and such. So what? LOVE YOURSELF! So you may not be as "creative" as the guy/girl next door. So what? LOVE YOURSELF!

LOVE YOURSELF TODAY!!!



Here are some wonderful quotations taken from
HeartQuotes:

People are like stained glass windows: they sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light within.
Elizabeth Kubler-Ross

Beauty is how you feel inside, and it reflects in your eyes. It is not something physical.
Sophia Loren


The real sin against life is to abuse and destroy beauty, even one's own—even more, one's own, for that has been put in our care and we are responsible for its well-being.
Katherine Anne Porter
