The most difficult
things to face in life are the things
you do not like about yourself.
Not your ears, legs, hair or those
habits and abilities you feel are not up
to par. It is the ugly things you
know about yourself that need a good
long look. You recognize for
yourself. You may go to any length
to cover a shortcoming, while you
quickly point out the ills of another.
Since the very thing you want to hide is
the thing that shows itself, you need to
be able to say, "I know that and I'm
working on it!" It takes a loving
heart, a willing mind and a sensitive
spirit to get to the core of the self.
But when you do, you can root out the
seeds of ugliness.
