I climbed on to that stage with nothing but a borrowed G-string and chutzpah. For half a song, the name & tune of which I wish I could remember, it was rapturous and I was pretty.
Once again you suck me in. So much to unpack here. But just want to say that I hope the narrative in your head has changed. You are beautiful and always have been - no stage or G-string needed.
Honestly, not so much. Just gotten comfortable with having “a good personality.” Mom once told me, when I talked about a babysitter that I had a little girl crush on, who I thought was beautiful, mom said no she’s not. But you love her so to you she’s beautiful to you. I believe that’s true, the more you care about somebody more beautiful they are to you.
You are such a gorgeous writer

Agree. There are a bazillion kinds of beautiful.
Beautiful and relatable.
