Question of the Day

[ayoub]

Do you see yourself as beautiful? Why or why not?

yes untill i look at my self in the mirror, then no. idk....

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Being happy with yourself inside is much more important...

When I see beauty I'd rather see it internally. That's the more lasting kind, the more precious kind. I do believe I am beautiful inside and it makes me feel good and proud. :)

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

You're both, beautiful inside and out...

:D

o.o sometimes, but I don't really think I am. But I have a vivid imagination.. then I look in a mirror, sometimes I catch an angle that looks nice, but that's all it is to me, angles..
I don't think we ever judge ourselves fairly though, but even knowing that can't really effect our opinion

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

We are very often our own worst judges...

At the moment, no, but only because I have a cold, can't breathe and haven't slept well the past few nights because of my cold so I look like shit :-P But, for me, beauty is more of an internal thing and in that respect, yes, I do think I'm beautiful.

oh, it depends. on the outside, i tend not to. im chubby, with squinty teeth and big glasses. i work with what i've got.
on the inside, i'm fairly happy with what i am.

um...although i have gotten quite heavy due to medical reasons,
i know that i am not ugly and i know that inside i'm a purdy gal.
now, if i could only look like this (http://burningchampa.livejournal.com/214926.html) again
i would be running naked for miles around this city! LOL
*hugs*

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

LOL! :D

My 'brain' says 'I'm looking fine'....my mirror is in the past and rips me apart...hard to shake off growing up with negative....my intelligence tells me that someone my age who everyone thinks is in 30s and wears a 0/1 junior, must look okay, my past tells me I'm fat and ugly....ongoing battle!

I could loose about 8-10" on my waste, I would be the cat's ass. Folks would be lined up just to pimp me out so that they could make cash off of my ass. Matthew McConaughey would be sitting on a toilet with a bath robe on and his cell phone, drinking a bottle of vodka and weeping and blubbering, waiting for his agent to call, wondering what happened. How do I know this? because I'm not too shabby in my current state. ;)

Heheh :D

I would have to say it depends on the day. I still fight old demons in my head. I spent most of my childhood being told that I wasn't beautiful. There was a sort of understanding that I was the smart one and my sister was the pretty one. We have both struggled long and hard to break free of those perceptions. Most days I feel that I am a beautiful person inside. It is rarely that I feel beautiful on the outside but I try to maintain an "act as if" philosophy. If I act as if I feel beautiful, I will start to believe it. (Just as I was conditioned to believe otherwise) Its been somewhat successful although, self improvement is a process, not an event. Time can only tell.

I hope for many good days for you then :D

[stardances.livejournal.com]

I am quite the stunning beauty :). Unfortunately, I forget that sometimes when I see the few signs of aging (a few extra pounds, two or three grey hairs..) that time has left behind to remind me of all the wonderful years I have had on this lovely planet.

I'm a BITCH. Get over it.

[cmerun12.livejournal.com]

When I stand up for myself and my beliefs,
they call me a bitch.

When I stand up for those I love,
they call me a bitch.

When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts or do things my own way,
they call me a bitch.

Being a bitch means I won't compromise what's in my heart. It means I live my life MY way. It means I won't allow anyone to step on me.

When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak against it,
I am defined as a bitch.

The same thing happens when I take time for myself instead of being everyone's maid, or when I act a little selfish. It means I have the courage and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am and won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I "should" be.

I am outspoken, opinionated and determined. I want what I want and there is nothing wrong with that!

So try to stomp on me, try to douse my inner flame, try to squash every ounce of beauty I hold within so be it.

I embrace the title and am proud to bear it.

B - Babe
I - In
T - Total
C - Control of
H - Herself

Im kinda cute for a monkey... :D

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

:D

Me?

[southern-chell.livejournal.com]

I'm a plain girl with nothing too redeeming unless you count the inside and I honestly do think I have a beautiful heart.

Why? Because I care more for others than I do for myself. I'm genuinely concerned about not only people that I know and love but just for people.

Re: Me?

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

You're far from plain!

*hugs*

[dakshina-kalika.livejournal.com]

Yes, I do think I am beautiful. I think my beauty comes from within and shines outward to manifest in my physical appearance.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

:D

Oh, and hello, and welcome to this place :)

[photodiva02.livejournal.com]

Some days I do, but some days I don't. I still see that chubby ten year old in braces every time I look in the mirror.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

That girl will alawys be there...

Same as the little 8 year old I see...

[mousie.livejournal.com]

honestly.. no. Doesnt mean I dont like myself.. but as far as beautiful.. no.. I see complete and utter Dorkness.. and I am fine with that lol..

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Pfft...

There's a monkey I know that might disagree :)

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Inner beauty is much harder to achieve than outer beauty...

And in a lot of cases, much easier to see :)

[kalquessa.livejournal.com]

I'm getting there, physically and spiritually. Mr. Bill tells me I'm beautiful pretty frequently, and that helps motivate me to strive for true beauty.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

:D

Mr Bill knows, you should listen :D

[pan16.livejournal.com]

Yes I do and I believe my answer is similar to dakshina kalika's. But I also have a more superficial view in that I think I have a pretty face. If I didn't I wouldn't have ever had so many girls throwing themselves at me (that is when I used to actually hang out with people) and giving me doe's eyes when they see me on the street.
And inside I think I am very beautiful. I even think the ugliness has its own sort of charm.
So yes, when it comes to beauty, I am very satisfied with myself.

Well said, my friend :)

[torisrabbit.livejournal.com]

when i was with karl or even before karl(my ex) i thought i was not that attractive, but before a few weeks we broke up my inner self started to shine and the more i thought about it, i knew i was attractive. to some people. and then now my confidence level about myself has gone up. i am not perfect, but i feel better about how i look. i just need to work on my trust issues. i love your questions....do you think i could start doing this in my journal and start crediting you?? as a tag =)
