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...499Please respect copyright.PENANAAFvmIkVx0N
Date Of The Dream: 11/21/2022499Please respect copyright.PENANAOEqHyzEqyv
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. 499Please respect copyright.PENANAnIKIyAU2jb
They had sparkled just for me. 499Please respect copyright.PENANAhAL9wKAzmM
At that time I had been dressed in a simple elegant white dress that flowed out around my legs. 499Please respect copyright.PENANA1v2UIKJxEF
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.499Please respect copyright.PENANAEwcjnxVaJs
So much ice cream. I crouched down and took a macaron in my delicate fingers lifting it to my mouth. 499Please respect copyright.PENANA91H6L1F5Bf
Before I could eat I stopped myself. I couldn't risk getting chubby. What would everyone think of me? 499Please respect copyright.PENANAuoUt4PMmAZ
That's when I noticed the figure.499Please respect copyright.PENANA3lErt1eoCq
The figure was a dull gray, almost black.499Please respect copyright.PENANAh9yyE6RW1W
Like a shadow... but not quite.499Please respect copyright.PENANAXGxwZKNETZ
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. 499Please respect copyright.PENANAeuJ5HYCgjH
As the figure neared me, every feature I had ever considered ugly about myself began to become more prominent. 499Please respect copyright.PENANA1Cq6lUk7PR
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. 499Please respect copyright.PENANATOr70jvwJR
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. 499Please respect copyright.PENANAIErlYfHRme
Little by little I began to look like the girl in the mirror. More confident. 499Please respect copyright.PENANAupLToKkANM
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.499Please respect copyright.PENANAM3qwMh8D1A
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...499Please respect copyright.PENANAYhopFwQl12

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