I am gap toothed but it has never stopped me from thinking that I
am beautiful. Yez, there are those moments of insecurities but being gap
toothed made me more happy to show the world that even with this imperfection
of having a gap between my front row teeth I must never stop smiling and
letting the universe know that I am happy.
Some are concern on how I would
appear to the public eye. They are afraid that I would look like ugly little
duckling /gap toothed dora the explorer minus the bangs…It disturbs me
sometimes, I know they are just concern. There was a time that my face seemed
to revolt against me, planting these red pimples on my cheeks and on my
forehead, my hair is super dry and I have to wear glasses plus I can’t
appreciate the beauty of my separated teeth. I swear I have never looked myself
in the mirror for almost a month, even in wind shields, or anything that cast a
reflection I dare not to even glance, because when I do, it seems I’m looking
at an untamed geeky hopeless monster.
…then I realized one day, this
imperfections doesn’t really matter. There are those people that have acne all
over there face and they are happy. There’s Vanessa Paradis that even with a
gap tooth got the hottest, sexiest, quirkiest, talented man ever lived and that
is ever dearest Johnny Depp. So, why am I sulking? Just because I don’t have a
super model height? Just because I don’t have a flawless glowing skin? Just
because I don’t have those fully formed nose? those perfect rosy cheeks, those
luscious lips, and especially those perfectly aligned, sparkling white teeth?
My answer is
the heck with the beauty standards of the world, I am BEAUTIFUL!
Beauty, we are all born with it,
and it all starts from accepting who we are and what we are. We are created in
God’s likeness. We are beautiful. I am beautiful and you are beautiful!
As days passed by, my pimples
have dried out, yes they have leaved scars but I don’t care.
My vision get’s blurry everyday
so I really need to wear glasses, I may look like a nerd but I don’t care.
My nose, as they say looks just
like a lump on my face, but I don’t care.
I have cut short my hair and I
don’t even know if it will fit me, well I don’t care.
My teeth? They just keep on
gapping but I don’t care. ^^, Braces are too expensive.
My height, too bad it got tired
growing only 4’9” tall at age 24, (sigh). It’s hereditary you know, I have nothing
much to do about it, better leave it to acceptance. LOL
Pretty much the only important
thing is hygiene…haha…and you are free to S-M-I-L-E !
