Ah, but when trying not to be a wet blanket I realized that I am actually glad about that one thing.

I agree, LSPE has one of the best smiles out there. When she puts on a true smile, it's the kind of thing that lights up a room and makes just about everyone else smile. Similarly, she has some of the kindest eyes I've seen in my life.

For anyone who hasn't met LSPE in person, she seriously radiates the kindness and warmth of her personality. She cares, and you know it right off the bat.

Exactly what I wanted to say but couldn't figure out how to word it.

Sometimes the warmth is so warm I have to rip my clothes off just to maintain a decent body temperature. And, ugh ... that smile. Christ, i have to wear shades whenever i'm around her, it's so frickin' bright!

Oh my goodness, you all! What lovely and kind things you're saying. It's so funny - and, iSm, this is what I was saying about needing to start Body Image thread Version the Third where we all say lovely things about each other - because the truth is, the little things that bother you may be just the things that other people like. For instance - I would never have said my smile, because to me, it's crooked with bad teeth that just won't stay on the white side of yellow. But it seems to be a hit among some people I really love, so maybe I'll value it more now that I know!

Really? I love your smile! I don't see bad teeth at all.

You know, the thing about a "positive body image" thread is that generally the sorts of people with ok-to-good opinions of themselves already will post, and those who are on the other end of the spectrum will just avoid it. It is interesting, though, to see what people like in themselves. Not in a "I can't believe that" sort of way or anything negative - but truly just an interesting thing to observe.

Well, since that other thread, a couple of people have made a point of telling me they like my nose.

But I'm not buying.

But that's just curmudgeonly me ... with certain body image issues that compliments have no effect on. Ah well.

Teehee, there have been two fairly recent occasions where Morrigoon registered the predictable ALARM ... and that tickled me. But, well, it was only in agreeance with one of my more positive body image issues.

I like the back of my head, because I never have to see it.
