Who's being ugly?

Mean girls in school yard.
Tag teaming to bully the ugly duckling.
Time will be best revenge.

So profound, could relate, feeling like an 'ugly duckling' a lot growing up!

Thanks, Michelle. Inspired by a cute little girl who keeps being bullied in school... the last incident was at her graduation from grade 6 and it made her cry! Wish I'd been around!

Nicely done Line, and I have met some of these girls, but no ugly ducklings.
