I am Beautiful!

Some years ago, someone asked if there was part of my body that I'd like to be changed.

I admitted that, once, I entertained that thought. I was ten or eleven years old back then. I never liked my legs which made me see myself ugly. I told the elders that when I grew up I would have it replaced with a long and skinny legs.

Then I grew up but had forgotten that dream of alteration. Maybe because I was so contented with myself.

How did it happen? Maybe because I enjoyed the appreciation being given to me. Or maybe because I learned to just smile from all the insults some peers threw on me.

But definitely, it was because I found my inner beauty. I did not seek for the surgeon to give me the skinny long legs, but, instead, I sought for wise elders, teachers, holy priests to help me work in sculpting the beautiful me.

What else did I say?

"I love myself so much that I don't want anything to be changed in my body."

And I am proud to say, "I am beautiful!"
