The Beauty Game

Step right up, Don't be shy, just give er a try.

I thought it might make the world a better place if everyone could just suspend how they feel and imagine they are looking back at themselves.

I have heard so many times beautiful women saying that they were actually beautiful at one time.

I get upset because I do not think that it a worthwhile thing to bemoan anyway, there are far worse things to loose, but see that is the "Beauty" of being Mormon, we believe everything will be restored as it once was and not even a hair from your head will be lost.

But, I have done it, too. Like before Joseph I thought I was so fat and ugly, but now I would love to be that fat and ugly. So, that got me thinking I probably am pretty right now to an older self. Don't get me wrong, I do not lack self esteem. Many people tell me they think I am beautiful, though, honestly, it is being told that makes,me worry. Do I look so terrible that I appear to need compliments? Or, they are just being nice. In a class in middle school we had to write compliments on eachother's backs for every other person in the room. I was sincere, but figured that it was, irrelevant. The point was that we were placing drops in our classmates buckets instead of dumping them out or siphoning them out to feel better ourselves.

Anyhow, that might make a fun FHE. It reminds me of a game a friend from GA told me about communication where the first person says something and the second person interprets saying what they heard. Fun games await!
