Let’s get physical

Today’s prompt: What’s 3 physical, and non-physical traits that make you feel good about yourself?

As I have stated before being perceived makes me mortified, and gives me major ICK. I don’t like looking in mirrors. I have a deep fear of looking at myself in the mirror at night/during the dark/when I am high. The reflection moving uncannily, and smiling maliciously is what I feel will happen when looking in the mirror at night.

I may have to sit with this prompt a little bit because 3 physical, and non-physical traits do not come easily to me.

Physical:

  1. I like my lips. They are full, and my cupid’s bow makes me feel special.

  2. Gap-tooth smile. I used to hate my smile, and wanted to get braces. Now I love my smile because it makes me unique, and I like feeling “different” and “quirky.” In African culture having a gap tooth smile is a sign of beauty, in France it is a “cool look.” Sometimes considered lucky as well, beautiful and lucky are not bad traits to have.

  3. My ass/skin. I love how soft I am all over

Non-physical

  1. I like my sense of humor. I enjoy being funny, and laughing. Laughing so hard my abs hurt. Those close to my heart enjoy when I laugh, and can’t understand what I am saying.

  2. My mind, and how I love to learn.

  3. My work ethic/stubbornness. Literally how I survive, and have flourished despite substandard odds. Everyday I am surprised I have a master’s degree, and know how to read.

I am about to go to brunch with 2 happy monogamous couples who have conventional lives. Wish me luck bitches.

xx,
