I have had this dream every day ever since my friend called me ugly as a joke. I didn't realize the effect the comment had at first since I don't tend to take things personally, but for some reason, this hit me like a knife...526Please respect copyright.PENANANFGzPI40Ev
Date Of The Dream: 11/21/2022526Please respect copyright.PENANASDitPlJfbF
It was a beautiful dream. I was having a picnic on the moon, staring out at the earth and the stars spread out in front of me. 526Please respect copyright.PENANAPndQLKeTtH
They had sparkled just for me. 526Please respect copyright.PENANAdpzvLnpcMk
At that time I had been dressed in a simple elegant white dress that flowed out around my legs. 526Please respect copyright.PENANAsUbcUEkya0
I felt beautiful.
The picnic spread out before I had everything I had ever wanted. Gorgeous cakes decorated with pink frosting, every flavor and color of macarons I could think of, and ice cream.526Please respect copyright.PENANAJsP7MMfu9H
So much ice cream. I crouched down and took a macaron in my delicate fingers lifting it to my mouth. 526Please respect copyright.PENANAWBvB03i8cT
Before I could eat I stopped myself. I couldn't risk getting chubby. What would everyone think of me? 526Please respect copyright.PENANAu7Q2LuG6XD
That's when I noticed the figure.526Please respect copyright.PENANAht9CGPu9o4
The figure was a dull gray, almost black.526Please respect copyright.PENANAGNheX4LEM1
Like a shadow... but not quite.526Please respect copyright.PENANA0H5gK4ZBVy
This figure constantly shifted around ever so slightly.
After a couple seconds of silence passed the figure began to stand and float toward me. Growing larger and larger. 526Please respect copyright.PENANAuVEHDGLxsN
As the figure neared me, every feature I had ever considered ugly about myself began to become more prominent. 526Please respect copyright.PENANAF6QUj8M1eK
The figure had stopped right in front of me and was towering over me by a good seven feet. It reached out one shaky hand that held a glowing orb. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen, and it showed my reflection. Nothing changed or was different. 526Please respect copyright.PENANAcHJM9qwmO9
Just me. The way I looked in the mirror. The way I looked at my friends.
I touched the orb and the creature began to shrink. 526Please respect copyright.PENANAmXwOa4umKA
Little by little I began to look like the girl in the mirror. More confident. 526Please respect copyright.PENANADkq0UJD9j3
I was beautiful.
I woke up that morning tired. I went straight to the mirror and looked at myself. I didn't make any comments in my head about how weird my hair looked or how long my arms were.526Please respect copyright.PENANAVA2Fsanuk9
I just stared in the mirror admiring the person I was.
I did that every morning until I could look in the mirror and confidently walk out the door the way I was.
I no longer have that dream...526Please respect copyright.PENANAXZuD53NYDy
526Please respect copyright.PENANAmLQ1gDbAoF
(That picnic was so fire though and I really wanted to fricking eat that macaron.)
