\"Young<\/a>As Valentine Day approaches, beauty and relationships start to stare you right in the face. I often wondered am I really pretty? Am I really deserving of a great relationship? Do I have the right stuff to be considered pretty? Am I worth being treated as a queen?<\/p>\n

As I examined myself and gave these questions great thought, I said to myself. \u201cYes\u201d to all. How can I be a daughter to a King, filled with all the right stuff and not be deserving of wearing the title, \u201cpretty woman.\u201d<\/p>\n

Again I say, \u201cI am a pretty woman\u201d, not based off one\u2019s perspective of me but of the perspective that I have learned to see in myself. Growing up with low self esteem will cause you to view yourself as everything but pretty. You see, I no longer look into the mirror wishing to look like or be like anyone else. I now know that the queen, yes I said queen that stares back at me, deserves not only a great relationship but the best of everything. Including the right to see herself as worthy enough to wear the crown.<\/p>\n

Pretty is never defined by the outer appearance alone. One must possess inner qualities that far exceed the beauty on the outside. As I size myself up, I no longer look to see what\u2019s wrong with me, but I now marvel at what is right with me. With great discovery, I have learned that I am overall a kind person, I love to see others happy, I enjoy being a walking light, I often think of how I can put a smile on someone else\u2019s face, and I have also learned how to put one on my very own. You see, a queen knows her worth and it has never been defined by the dollars in her purse but by the character she posses. There is no doubt in my mind that a queen deserves someone who can see the reflection of all of her prettiness. I think we would call him a king. One with a vision of what pretty really looks like, from the inside out. So I say to you, never doubt you’re pretty— you are pretty enough!<\/p>\n

P.S. If you don\u2019t have a sweetheart for Valentines Day, treat your pretty self and love on you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
