This thread needs this post I made for a person who thought there Nose was big: (
Take a hint it is applicable to this thread).
The kids in school can be
cruel. But it is a
fool who uses the mouth as an improper
tool in
school when
their own stink at the
stool provides their
fuel.
(Chillen)
Take them to
school by being your own crown
jewel; become the master of yourself and you will
rule;this will make you happy and
cool and is your personal
tool.
When my kids were teenagers, I always felt that they had 3 atmospheres that they had to properly live in: 1. The home atmosphere, 2. The school atmosphere, and 3. Outside world atmosphere (going out with friends, etc). All three of these, they sought acceptance and happiness as they interacted.
Since kids go to school for nearly 12 years (leading to High School) and is during a delicate growth period, social acceptance is a major factor in their lives, and is one that has to be "properly" dealt with when complications come up.
With this in mind, every person calling you a name has their own imperfection shame of their own.
In other words, their crap stinks as strong as yours and they pull their pants up the same way.
How you handle this name calling in your mind will determine how you handle it on the outside and can determine the outcome. You MUST be confident in your perception of yourself. You must "appropriately" stand up for yourself. DO NOT ALLOW another human being to bring you down. You have to bring things you face into proper perspective.
By the way, I have a big nose........its nearly 5 inches and I am balding which makes it stick out longer and more pronounced. Sometimes I go into a store, and here people laughing about it. I think its comical that their laughing at it and laugh myself. It doesnt bother me in the least. I know its big....I love the dang honker........
But like others have said, GET OVER IT. DO NOT let others define who you are. This will NOT be the first nor the last that someone in your life will try to attack--what appears to them as an imperfection.
Br proud of who you are. Your nose isnt big.........BUH!.........MINE IS THOUGH!
HEHEHEHE

Anyway
People are often unreasonable, illogical and self centered;
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and true enemies; Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank, they may cheat you;
Be forthright anyway.
What you spent years building, they may destroy overnight;
Build anyway.
The good you do today, they often will forget tomorrow
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and it will never be enough;
Give the world the best you've got anyway.
You see, in the final analysis, it is about your own perception;
It was never between you and them, Anyway

We can never adequately judge the lives of others, because each person knows only their own pain and renunciation. It's one thing to feel that you are on the right path, but it's another to think that yours is the only path.
Sometimes judgments prevent us from seeing the good and the beauty that lies beyond the persons appearance. Sometimes judging yourself though someone else's eyes gives a different version than what you think of yourself in the first place
Persons come in all shapes and sizes. Just because one does not adhere to health and fitness, may be over weight, or ugly (in one's opinion) doesn't make them bad or ugly persons: we all have bad qualities no matter what we do as we are human.
When you make personal judgments about other persons, just remember, another person can make a judgment about you, and maybe just as harsh, because he or she may not just share the same value system as you, and perceive YOU as ugly thought you see yourself as beautiful, normal or average. An open mind is a terrible mind to waste.............
An example: A person who may be considered beautiful "physically" "could be" viewed by some as ugly--because the plastic wrap (called personality) can make it so in some opinions. Eh?
ROCK ON BROTHERS and SISTERS.
We do have new persons here that do make posts not related to fitness (in a sense), but more in line with what they look like. And, though I do believe we should share an understanding when posting to the "Internet", remember, there are Millions of people.........who have different viewpoints, and do not SHARE our viewpoints, feelings, and opinions and thus "effected" differently.
Best wishes,
Chillen
