Much better day and a challenge

Today has been a much better day. I awoke with the feeling that it would be. I maintained that attitude. Attitude can make all the difference in the world. I firmly believe in the thought of mind over matter, and I have experienced faster healing by willing myself to heal over having a bad attitude towards it and letting the doctors fix it ... mind you, they both healed, but when I willed it, it healed faster.
Were there hang-ups? of course, ... this is life, and that happens. The ant bites from yesterday made little bubbles on my arm ... that felt funny

Ok, challenge time:
First, a story. I've been trimming trees for over seven years now. I'm getting ready to transfer to the big university here to finish my bachelors degree. Walking the campus, I was awed by the number and different variety of tree species. I finally found an honest Red Oak instead of the Pin Oak and other similar species; however, I kept noticing things that needed trimming ... that dead limb high up, a small sign of lack of iron for an oak, pruning needed to give some space for a building. Now, they all looked quite nice and taken care of, I was just noticing small minute spots, because I am familiar with looking FOR those defects.
I've always said, we see all the flaws in ourselves, much more than anyone else would notice. This is the same way, we are so used to spotting those defects on us, that they loom larger than they really are.

My challenge: The next time you spot a defect on yourself AND you feel bad about it. I want you to think, would anyone else actually notice it, and if they might, would they truly care? Think about it truthfully. I believe you will realize that the vast majority of people wouldn't even notice it.

Yes, you ARE wonderful, defects and all.

Thank you I would say, always be yourself, change for yourself (for your health is a great reason), don't be something that you're not, especially just for someone else.
We are our own worst critics. God knows I am my own. But I've noticed, stuff that stands out to us, is largely unnoticed or isn't that big of a deal for others.
