Favorite Physical Traits
Week 23 – Thankful Tuesdays
If it’s noticing physical traits when seeing others, I think it comes with comparison.
I’m quite pimpled, so I notice that first. I guess they could be my favorite trait. My sister also gets them, so I’ve this knack to see any new pimple that pops up on her face.
I’m a bit overweight, and have a belly, so I do notice when my friends are overweight too. I have two best friends who are, and we tease each other about it. It’s all friendly of course, and it helps to ignore it or inspire to try and get it under control.
And yeah, I’m happy with my height. When visitors come to my office from Europe or Africa, that’s the first thing I notice. They’re way taller than me. Some of them are nearly seven feet. At times, it makes me wish I were a little taller.
I don’t suppose there is anyone who looks at the mirror and doesn’t wish to change some aspect of what they see. (There might be of course.) I do too. But honestly, I’m thankful for whoever I am at this moment, whatever the traits I have.
