It's interesting how people see themselves and what attributes they apply to themselves. A friend of mine calls himself a "wander-er" and another friend who is always calling himself fat. I wonder how we attach ourselves to these reflections, be the reflection poor or true.
My boyfriend is always telling me "you're gorgeous," "you're pretty," "Liz, you're beautiful." And my reaction is to make a funny or ugly face, everytime. What's with that? I hear and take in the compliment, but can't accept it or be grateful for it. That's just his view, the same way your parents have to love you and think you're beautiful. It's funny how love makes you see people differently. So I can't take compliments from people that love me, lol. Because that's not truth, it's just a poor reflection of what they see in me. I'm not doggin' on myself here, just tryin' to see humor in the little things.
