Imperfections

Recently a song from natasha bedingfield impacted me because it reminded me of the ordeal that I went through as a teenager.
I zhnged the lyrics abit so as to suit my situation I faced. Have a good laugh now. Because it don't affect me no more! And reflecting back, it was truly an experience i wouldn't trade for no other.

"Pimples" (Taken from Freckles - Natasha Bedingfield)

I used to care so much about what others think about
Almost didn't have a thought of my own
The slightest remark would make me embark
On the journey of self doubt
But that was a while ago
This boy has got stronger
If I knew then what I know now
I would have told myself don't worry any longer it's OK

[Chorus:]
'cause a face without pimples is like a sky without stars
Why waste a second not loving who you are
Those little imperfections make you beautiful, lovable, valuable,
They show your personality inside your heart
Reflecting who you are

Who you are
Who you are
Who you are

I wondered if I could trade my body with somebody else in magazines
Would the whole world fall at my feet?
I felt unworthy and would blame my failures on the ugliness I could see
When the mirror looked at me
Sometimes I feel like the little boy who doesn't belong in his own world
But I'm getting better
And I'm reminding myself

[Chorus]

Reflecting who you are
Reflecting who you are
Hmmm
Whoooooo whoa hmmmm oooooo

[Chorus]

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
and its not like i still don't get those zits.
i still do. damn. but its part and parcel of life.

now should i squeeze it or spam some more cream.. hm
