I was reading a book in class and my friends asked me what I was reading and I replied, How to be cool. You can literally see their mouths hanging open. And I immediately knew thaty they thought that I was reading a self help book.

I'm soo desperate I need how to be cool! Help me!!! Yea, right!

I quickly explain that it is just a storybook. They still looked at me sceptically. It is just a title of the book that so happens to sound like a self help book. My friend asked me why in the world do I need to know how to be cool?! I was like, I'm already cool and he goes, yea right! How mean! He hurt my fragile heart! Not.

I'm cool believe me or not. I don't think coolness is how people view me as but rather as how I view myself. Being cool is the confidence of knowing that I am who I am and loving myself everyday. (No, I did not get it from a self help book) Like my teacher say, Look at yourself in the mirror everyday and smile at yourself and the rest of the day will be perfect!
And I add, to myself I will say that I am looking pretty!!! (I can hear the coughs, need me to thump you on the back?) I have a friends motto which is ' I love me, myself and I!' I know it sounds so thick-skinned but sometimes we need encouragement and there are things in life that really just put you down and I do feel lousy at times. I admit I do feel so inferior among my friends, so small and inadequate.

There are times I totally have no confidence in myself. Sometimes I feel so fat I feel like a pig. There are days when I feel so ugly with myself and I also feel self concious. I'm super scared of how people or my friends perceive me. I'm a total coward. I'm so busy checking myself on how I look that the world past me by. All this is totally uncool. I am trying to please people though it is not a bad thing but I became obsessed that I try to change me. I become someone I am not just trying to fit in. I hate myself then. I look in the mirror and I saw someone so stupid, a coward, a fake. I'm as timid as a mouse.

There is a verse in the bible:
Consider how the lilies grow. They do not labour or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendour was dressed like one of these. -Luke 12:27

If God can make lilies of the field beautiful and they dont have to work to be pretty and yet they can stand so prettily in the fields why cant I? I dont have to be the cowardly shy stupid mouse. I will be the brave strong courageous lion. Loving myself everyday! Afterall, if I cant even love myself who then can love me? I know God will still love me but will the people around me love me?

I'm sure you heard of the sentence, True beauty on the inside not the outside but I also believe outer appearance is also important! So I try to dress prettily whenever I go church or out with my friends cause clothes can give me confidence as well only if I dare to wear those clothes.


I love who I am!!!


I Lay every burden down, at the foot of the cross


A moment to remember!

I trade these ashes in for beauty and wear forgiveness as my crown. And I stand here before you in wide open wonder amazed at the glory of you.

Little words.

--->Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all this things will be given unto you. --->You are my strength when I am weak --->Sorrow looks back, worry looks around, Faith looks up -->God makes a promise, Faith believes it, hope anticipates it,patience quietly awaits it.
