I am neither in my 30s or early 20s.  I am somewhere in between where age matters less and less while wisdom and self-awareness weigh more.  I feel like I am a significant part of the world and the world is a significant part of me.  I am in a happy place where confidence is never scarce and courage to explore is abundant.

It was not always like this, especially when I was between finding myself and letting people in the door.  Growing up, I thought I was such an ugly kid.  I wasn’t as fair as some of my sparkling white classmates or as smooth-moving as some of the dancers whenever we have programs in school.  I had an issue with my physical appearance, either I was too small or not fair-skinned enough, or I was too boyish or awkward. 

Instead of swimming in my misery or boredom of ordinariness and outcast my own self from the rest of the seemingly normal-looking world, I built on being Ms. Personality.  I can at least work on that.  I may not have the prettiest face in class but if people like my company, laugh in my presence and basically enjoy their time enough without qualms, a pretty face would just be, a pretty face.  And I wouldn’t feel, lacking.  Pleasant over pretty, I’d tell myself.  A pleasing personality equalizes whatever feels like missing.  I followed also simple rules like refraining from saying a bad thing about another person even if he or she deserves it… don’t discredit your gifts/talents and the person that you are… always have a grateful heart. 

It’s not always easy but I’ve become a confident woman throughout the years of learning and relearning.  There is beauty in confidence.  And I say, every woman should share that beauty with the world.
