“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” -Nelson Mandela 1994

shmamberlinjeanne: livvynicole: Someone left me an ask wondering what my biggest insecurity was. Well, besides my jew nose (Thanks Grandma), it’s my bite. Or a complete lack there of. I had braces for four years and my teeth were nearly perfect, but they never would touch. The orthooos and dentists told me that I needed to have jaw surgery and screws implanted in my jaw and gums, which I couldn’t afford. Along with head gear I’d have to wear during the day, which, obviously, FUCK NO. So we took my braces off and that was that. I wore my retainers everyday, but they told me my teeth would still move regardless because my jaw isn’t aligned and my palette isn’t firm. So, end result…my teeth don’t touch. I literally can’t eat, even off a fork. I have to cut all my food into tiny little pieces and chew it on my back teeth. I can’t bite my nails. Fortunately, I can still bite other people. But yes. I am suuuch a fan of perfect teeth. An mine kill me. It’s embarrassing to eat in front of people, so I usually don’t. And I kin of look squirrely sometimes. A lot of people don’t think it’s something worthy of dwelling on, but it’s a bummer, and it makes me feel hideous. So there’s that… & I MAKE FUN OF HER EVERYDAY FOR IT. BUT I ACTUALLY THINK ITS CUTE AND HILARIOUS. HAHAHHAHAH  IMPERFECTIONS ARE BEAUTIFUL!
