Some have really hated their bodies to the extent that they do not find themselves worthy to appear in the public.  Others have risen up to define the odds with an attitude: we are all beautiful in our own skin.  Meet Grace Shisha as she shares her story on body shaming and how she found her path to loving her skin .  I hated my body and all its entirety. Each  time I saw my thin friends I was filled with admiration because I saw them happy, free to express themselves, they were not selective on their attires, they really looked good on everything they wore. I limited myself from a happy life of waking up every morning with a free spirit to enjoy the good things of this world.

Gratitude is the sweetest thing in a seekers life – in all human life. If there is gratitude in your heart, then there will be tremendous sweetness in your eyes.” Sri Chinmoy   In my life walk, I have grown to appreciate the beauty in a " thank you " . At at times we take for granted the things that really deserve our gratitude ignoring the fact that appreciation is the greatest craving of human kind .   The more grateful i have been, the more beauty I have seen even in the things others would call petty.❤️ I would love to personally thank these individuals that devoted their time to share their stories about the lock down effect on them, the lessons they learnt that changed their view of life. It was not easy for them however they shared their stories honestly even when they were ugly. These are people I call my heroes.
