Because I like that I got an ugly girl's personality. In other words, a homely girl always has to develop that muscle. And I did. But the good news is that I never considered myself beautiful at all. And I still don't.

We need to have empathy. When we lose empathy, we lose our humanity.

I have witnessed the softening of the hardest of hearts by a simple smile.
