You notice my flaws, but have notice the pain the started it all? Have you ever seen me struggle? Have you ever seen me cry? No?... Well that's a lie. Everyday when I awake I thank god that it's a new day. That I got past the last one with my grace. Because everyday I begin to think. I think of the world that I will live in one day. And every morning I look in the mirror and see my scars. I see the pain and honestly it makes life hard. Because I don't only have scars from the past. Yet I will have ones in the future. Obstacles that have mastered my ever being. I have witnessed things that have shattered my ever so pure seeing. But it's okay that I have my flaws, I am thankful that I have my scars. Because with out my flaws, with out my scars, with out the pain that started it all I wouldn't be me and quite frankly I am as happy as can be. Because I've been through things and seen thing. I will be able to do things and achieve things. So yes, call me Ms. Flawed and I will wear it thankful and proud, because since I'm flawed I'm beautiful in a way that is untouchable and indescribable. So no, you may not call me flawed. Because when you call me flawed I will snap my fingers, flip my hair because I'm not flawed I'm Ms. Flawed and I will wear that title like a crown because I'm a queen. I will shout from the roof tops with glee you may even hear me scream, "Ms. Flawed. That's me!"
This is something I wrote for a friend a while back who was going through a personal battle. I hope it inspires you to accept yourself.
