I'm okay with That


I don't need to wear makeup. I'm fine the way I am.

I don't need to be perfect. I know beauty is fleeting.

I don't need a lot of friends. I have a few whom are true.

I won't be liked by all. I'm thankful for who I have.

I won't have the fanciest clothes. I'm happy in the shoes I'm in.

I won't be important to everyone. I'm the world to somebody. 

I am beautiful in the skin I'm in.

I am confident.

I am thankful for what I have. 

I am selfless in my endeavors.

I love deeply.

I am who I am. I'm okay with That. 

I encourage others to be who they are.

You cannot be anything else in this world. 

I am who I am. I'm okay with That.
