I had a mini existential crisis today, because I was feeling really down on myself for reasons I won't get into. You see, I'm happy with who I am. I admit my flaws and have grown to embrace them as a part of the total package. I don't have to love the way I look or the way people react to me, but I'm overall accepting of the woman I see in the mirror and I try to love her as she is, without reservation. But that doesn't mean that everyone sees what I see and today I checked in with a few of my closest friends to see if there was something I was missing, if there was anything I was blind to, consciously or not. Here is how they see me, in their own words:
☆ A great friend
