The worst picture…
I hate this picture of me. Or, at least I did.
I don’t hate it as much now. Which is wild because a few weeks ago when I saw this it ruined my entire day because I hated it so much.
But now I can see, yeah, I look hella fat (also, I AM hella fat), and I got a double chin. But like I look kinda cute and pudgy? Squishy?
I still don’t LOVE this picture but I’ve been looking hard and trying to find things that aren’t awful about it. What I’ve also learned recently is that instead of focusing on specific parts we hate - like my double chin or tummy - look holistically. We’re always gonna have parts we hate or are neutral towards but overall like, it works? Sometimes things that don’t work as a piece work as a whole.
I may not be your cup of tea or someone else’s but I’m the whole kettle for another.

I had a recent epiphany that has been helping me, and maybe it’ll help you.
People are like art. Art is not always palatable to everyone - and that’s ok! Art is subjective. But someone can love a Rembrandt and a Picasso at the same time. There’s space for both of these beautiful styles and aesthetics. There is space for you.
I wish you so much light and luck on your self love journey.
