It is always on those things that scare us the most where we need to be, embracing it all, no matter how uncomfortable it feels. It is there where we can learn to accept...in this case, oursleves, and our appearance. Thanks for pushing that publish button.

I love seeing my blog friends in the 'raw'. We deepen friendships when we become vulnerable and human, and although we are miles away from one another, I sense a kinship with you so it is wonderful to see you as I would if we had woken up together at 'camp'! Those camp mornings are truly friendship-building!!Amber Greenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323635832521647800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5136941190156691502.post-58933896586863355162010-07-23T23:37:44.656-04:002010-07-23T23:37:44.656-04:00Just did mine too!

I was talking to a couple of friends from junior high about how we always felt so awkward and ugly never knowing that we would never be so beautiful again as we were in our youth. I want to participate in this self-portrait challenge too, especially now that I am hugely pregnant and hate how I look. Thanks for the inspiration.melaniehttp://www.meli-mello.comnoreply@blogger.com
