I actually posted about it a couple days ago! I think we as women are especially hard on ourselves. We compare ourselves to others and demand perfection out of ourselves instead of embracing our flaws and striving to be the best we can be.

I try very hard to remember that we present our best selves on the internet, and that blogger that looks perfect may have a lot of other things going on that she doesn't share with the internet. Her house may be a huge mess, but she only took a photo of the one perfectly styled area. Or she spent a reaaalllyy long time on hair and makeup before snapping that photo. Or she's in debt up to her eyeballs to have all those awesome items she blogs about.

So many girls at my church or girls on Google+ or just through emailing have said things like, "i'm not pretty enough" or "i'm not funny or smart like you" or just "i'm ugly". It hurts my heart. If we say we aren't good enough, we are saying that God did a crappy job when he created us. And that's stupid, because he never makes mistakes! You are beautiful because He made you and he calls you beautiful. And don't you ever forget it, Aunie. :)Jennifer Molenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8047315763557909947.post-14034916653061770672013-03-11T22:38:25.840-06:002013-03-11T22:38:25.840-06:00You are amazing!

I think the reason you have so many people who love your blog is because of how true you are to yourself. I feel like we can tell that from the way you write. <br />I have a hard time reading other ladies blogs that make their life, marriage and relationships perfect and easy because mine is far from perfect. I struggle in my marriage and when I read people's blogs and they're constantly talking about how fantastic their marriage is it makes me jealous. I don't like that feeling. When I write about my marriage I'm completely honest, we fight and argue and sometimes we're just downright mean to each other. We don't put on a front and act like everything is bunny's and rainbows when it clearly is not.Becca Mosshttp://faithloveandbabies.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
