There was a time in my life I thought reacting to every negativity that comes my way would make me grow, make me stronger.
At a point, I allowed people's perception about me to become my reality.
I downplayed myself thinking I wasn't good enough for the people around me.

I know the feeling and I am so happy your found your way through it.

I look myself in the mirror every morning and i say to myself
You are not perfect but you are beautiful inside out. Your flaws are your power and strength
