A Letter to Low Self-Image

Hey You,

Yeah, you...ugly, dirty and fat. I was thinking about you today (as I smiled) and remembered all of the years you caused me pain.  I know that you are weak now (with all of the time that's passed since we've seen each other) and this is probably not a good time, but I just had to write this letter to catch you up on my life now.

Remember all of that stuff that happened to me and when you first came into my life?  Remember how you told me that if I never opened my mouth about it I would be fine and we would be friends?  Well, you LIED!  I could take some time to ask you why but you would probably just lie to me again.  I get it! That's what you do...you lie.  I could just punch you in your face, but you kind of resemble me and I'm saved now, so I won't.

Guess what?  I wrote a book about all that stuff and it FREED ME!  You were sooo wrong about me and my life.  I should never have listened to you.  Mm, mm, mm...wasted time and energy.

I also wanted to share with you that I have MIRRORS now.  Yep!...in EVERY SINGLE ROOM OF MY NEW HOME!  Even my kitchen has a mirror! LOL.

Oh and by the way, God and I?  We both disagree with you... I AM GORGEOUS! Both inside and out! I got a new friend many years ago named Jesus and He cleaned me up AND girl, did you know I was never fat?  I'm just thicker in all the right places (with a small waist, I might add).

You were such a liar and I can't stand you.  So, I'm happy to see you go and I'm sorry you stayed so long!  BYE!

Sincerely,
Steph
