I have had this dream every day ever since my friend called me ugly as a joke. I didn't realize the effect the comment had at first since I don't tend to take things personally, but for some reason, this hit me like a knife...379Please respect copyright.PENANAaaxDCifOjY
Date Of The Dream: 11/21/2022379Please respect copyright.PENANAw2OED9PjTG
It was a beautiful dream. I was having a picnic on the moon, staring out at the earth and the stars spread out in front of me. 379Please respect copyright.PENANAOD93qzggh4
They had sparkled just for me. 379Please respect copyright.PENANA7zfiEJ82gy
At that time I had been dressed in a simple elegant white dress that flowed out around my legs. 379Please respect copyright.PENANAFcILta6Hg2
I felt beautiful.
The picnic spread out before I had everything I had ever wanted. Gorgeous cakes decorated with pink frosting, every flavor and color of macarons I could think of, and ice cream.379Please respect copyright.PENANAYLklGC3R8g
So much ice cream. I crouched down and took a macaron in my delicate fingers lifting it to my mouth. 379Please respect copyright.PENANARv2WNGdOFO
Before I could eat I stopped myself. I couldn't risk getting chubby. What would everyone think of me? 379Please respect copyright.PENANADS5eBFOoIs
That's when I noticed the figure.379Please respect copyright.PENANAmvvW5pBHk1
The figure was a dull gray, almost black.379Please respect copyright.PENANAWjDQ61RHSx
Like a shadow... but not quite.379Please respect copyright.PENANAvSCXlvRAc1
This figure constantly shifted around ever so slightly.
After a couple seconds of silence passed the figure began to stand and float toward me. Growing larger and larger. 379Please respect copyright.PENANAsMtDVfU5yb
As the figure neared me, every feature I had ever considered ugly about myself began to become more prominent. 379Please respect copyright.PENANAn8FADtqb0y
The figure had stopped right in front of me and was towering over me by a good seven feet. It reached out one shaky hand that held a glowing orb. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen, and it showed my reflection. Nothing changed or was different. 379Please respect copyright.PENANAThVx2tGryB
Just me. The way I looked in the mirror. The way I looked at my friends.
I touched the orb and the creature began to shrink. 379Please respect copyright.PENANAYy2cuNgH1P
Little by little I began to look like the girl in the mirror. More confident. 379Please respect copyright.PENANApQA6NXs5od
I was beautiful.
I woke up that morning tired. I went straight to the mirror and looked at myself. I didn't make any comments in my head about how weird my hair looked or how long my arms were.379Please respect copyright.PENANAEQGOSzGpUJ
I just stared in the mirror admiring the person I was.
I did that every morning until I could look in the mirror and confidently walk out the door the way I was.
I no longer have that dream...379Please respect copyright.PENANAkWhfMbDIhI

(That picnic was so fire though and I really wanted to fricking eat that macaron.)
