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. :)
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
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*
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. ;)
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.
