Day 10: My reflection in the mirror

Dear reflection,

I can't say that I've always been happy with you. When I look at myself, I can always find something wrong. It may be the bump on my nose, pointy nose, caving in stomach causing my ribs to pop out, freckles, zits on my face in the most obvious spot... Yes, I have a very low self-esteem and I just don't know why. I always feel so depressed if I don't have a boyfriend (my friends and family even pointed that out). I just for some reason feel better when I know a guy loves/likes me. My friends constantly reprimand me on that, "You don't need a guy to make yourself feel better!"----Actually, yes, I do. Even though I'm never happy in my shell, maybe someday I will be.

Sincerely,
the girl with a low self-esteem.
