You’re Beautiful
While the cat is away, the mice will play! In this case, I’m the cat and you’re the cute litte mice. The next few days will be a flurry of heavy lifting, packing up and rearranging, combined with feasting, partying and celebrating. We’re moving homes and celebrating my husband’s birthday. Woohoo! So while I pack my clothes and wrap H’s presents, let’s play a game.
The rules are:
1. De-lurk. If you’re reading this entry, you are obliged to reveal yourself! C’mon, it’s just a game.
2. Share something beautiful about about yourself. Perhaps you find beauty in your thick, lustrous hair. Perhaps you find beauty in the way you take care of your friends. Be as specific as possible.
3. Follow the format below:
My name is __________. I am beautiful because I ______________.
There is no time limit to this game. There is also no quitting. There is something beautiful about you even if you think there isn’t any. I know you know that. Ladies, take pride in that beauty you have. And the gentlemen? You’re beautiful, too. You are highly encouraged to play!
All clear? Let’s play!

My name is Rachel. I am beautiful because I value my friends. I listen to their problems without judgment. I’m there to share their triumphs as well as defeats. I keep their secrets and tell no one. I try to be present during every special event. But during instances that I couldn’t be there, they know I’m thinking of them and looking forward to making it up the very next time we see each other.
Happy Birthday to your hubby. Wishing him best of health, more inspirations and happy moments with people close to his heart.

I am beautiful because I found someone who loves me and still wants to spend his lifetime with me despite my imperfections.
