This is my response to those stuck up girls who look down on my appearance.
So I don't always paint my face,
So I don't have that much grace,
So I don't always brush my hair,
If I'm a little fat, I really don't care,
So sometimes I wake up late,
And then my jewelry doesn't coordinate,
So my socks are always ripped,
So my nailpolish is chipped,
So my shoes don't match my clothes,
So I have freckles on my nose...

So WHAT?
Who cares?
Not me!
You see...

I'm only gorgeous once in a while,
But at least I'm pretty when I smile.
If you think I'm ugly, that's just fine,
For I am lovely everytime,
That you look into my soul,
That's where there's beauty to behold,
'Cause Christ my Savior lives in there,
And that's more important than what I wear.
