'How To'

How to.... love all the parts of you Especially the ones you dare to hate That curves That freckles Even those wrinkles too Yes those ones That cover your face when you laugh Look at yourself in the mirror That curves you despise I am sure someone out there wish they had them in the same position on their own bodies The freckles on your nose In other's books they are called beauty spots I think those laugh lines are a testimony Of finding joy even in difficult times Don't compare Don't even envy Just love all the parts that makes you; uniquely you
