I urge everyone to go to this blog
nieniedialogues.blogspot.com

Once you read it and look at pictures you will feel humbled. Humbled about not only your life, but about your appearance. I am the biggest self critic. I look at myself and pick everything apart to my hair to my skin tone. I've always had this issue since I was young, growing deeper when I had my eating disorder. It's hard to overcome habits especially when you feel basic hate for your looks.

After reading about this woman and what she goes through made me cry. She is scarred from a devestating plane accident she was in a little over a year ago. She was burned over 80% of her body and was in a coma for months. She might have her days of self doubt and saddness of her appearance but she's such an inspiration. It makes me take a deeper look into my life ... because I don't think I would have the courage that she does.

Again wow. This definitly humbled me

I will update with pictures soon.

I wish you saw what everyone else sees. You are a beautiful woman. On the inside and OUT! Eyes that are very welcoming, a smile that is super contagious, nice straight teeth, skin that I've never seen any blemishes on, hair that looks great curly or straight, a personality that is sweet and caring, a laugh that would brighten ANYONE's day, and the list goes on and on and ON! I love you Mel!
