Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
Romans 12:2
I'm that girl who could never solidify her space in the popping girl clique in school because I was missing the it factor. I was invisible, or at least it felt that way, and so I told myself that I had to do more to get more. I wasn't comfortable with myself, and never felt comfortable around others. I didn't need help finding my imperfections because that was all I ever saw. I was my only friend, I didn't fit in anywhere, and I was too different to blend. I'm the one who was always over looked. I began to get so far away from myself that I began to allow those around me to dictate the specifications of my character. Therefore, I resolved to embellish my finer qualities and prohibit my weaknesses from ever appearing in public so that I could look strong, invincible, courageous, and outspoken.
