I have struggled for acceptance for years and to finally come to a point where I accept who I am is an honor to my creator. When I was made in the womb, I was not a mistake as people, especially women, sometimes see themselves. It was a deliberate decision. For so long, I tried to fit into the image of what I thought I was supposed to be, and of course, it never worked for me. I was never comfortable trying to do so. Now that I've accepted myself and my appearance which was always measured by the length of my hair, I feel there aren't any limits that I'm unable to reach. When you're trying to fit into a mold that wasn't made for you, you often have to silence parts of your being, and for what? To take on a version of what you think is acceptable. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere was never anything wrong with my personal version of beauty. I allowed my hair to be my identity. I didn't like my hair which drove me to not like my identity. A poor self-image caused me to be confused and a stranger to myself for years. I began watching others, and after many years, I decided that I was better off being true to myself, and that's when I became interested in myself and my hair length. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eToday, I wouldn't trade my personality for anyone else's. I was made to be free, love life, and be comfortable in my own skin. Read my story and accept yourself as God's special creation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThank you for reading my story.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Christian Faith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/24\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798886169171\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 36\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.06lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.00h x 4.00w x 0.09d","brand":"Wanda M.
