I am PERFECT....!

I am content and satisfied with every flaw, as I know God created me with nothing but greatness in mind. My stretch marks are the result of birthing two beautiful children that are developing into strong young men. My nose is big because God intended for me to take in deep breathes and inhale the air He streams into my body. My breasts are sized in accordance to supply my children with just enough nourishment. There is no need to strive to be any more PERFECT than what I am; my soul is at peace, my heart is pure, I am in direct alignment with God’s plan…

If you had vision you would be able to look beneath my surface and see that I am precious, but I am not for every man to experience. My PERFECT body may not be for you. You may be in search of IMPERFECTION, to which I have no account. Your search for IMPERFECTION may be the disguise you wear to lift your low self esteem. You’re right! Pass me by; I want no part in uplifting you. So goodbye, I bid you farewell, as I watch you walk pass PERFECTION and not even know it.

I am at peace with who I am. Folk see what "they believe" are my flaws and wonder how I can be so confident. My bald head is held high, my posture is erect, my stride is that of a thoroughbred, and the grace and elegance of my style is effortless, I will not allow you to disturb my PERFECT peace, because PERFECT is who I AM….

Talk to me....

Bottom line... you know my line " You are Perfectly Imperfect, therefore you are Perfectly You".

Great prose and self expression!

I love this one!! Everyone should believe that about themselves. We walk around bothered by weight and hair issues. There is nothing wrong with us and we should always walk with our head high. Sometimes life gets in the way and our self-esteem is low but we have to remember that this too shall pass. It took a 4 year relationship to realize that there is nothing wrong with me. I am fine just the way I am and Denise so are you!! I love you girl!!

So many times we see ourselves as less than we truly are because we look at ourselves through others eyes.

I love that you are now telling the world, this is me, I am the Perfect Denise. If I do not meet your standards, then it's your problem not mine.

Great job on this post. I am proud of you. TOU GO GIRL!!!!
