I LOVE what Mona wrote… it’s not really the image they see, it’s the love.

whatever, hina. you’d look just as good without make up. i tend to agree with jam on this one – it is perception. i used to feel the same way and then as i went through the pictures that we had, i saw most of them were of noo and z together and some of noo by herself, but in comparison – so few of me with her. and that’s what she’ll remember you know, who’s in the picture with her, not who’s behind the camera. and you have to believe this, to your kids, you will be beautiful, no matter what.
isn’t your mom, to you? in all the pictures she claims she looks ghastly?! it’s not really the image they see, it’s the love.

Jam, I’ve SEEN you without make up woman… and you look presentable. Would have even taken you out for coffee in your pajamas. BUT… I’m a whole different story all together.

hahaha what a sweet honest post h. And i hear you on this yes.
But i also think its also the perception one has of themsleves.
till about the age of 16 i HATED pics. I made an effort neevr to be in them and now i dont mind them- and yes even the bare naked wihtout make up ones- i noticed that the change was more in my thinking than in anything else…
