Itchy in My Skin

I struggle with self-esteem. Shocker! But it's not the kind where I don't think I'm good enough or that I can't do anything well or right. It's the kind where I don't feel comfortable in my skin. And I'm not just talking about body image. It is really hard for me to know how to feel about my accomplishments, regardless of my body. I am always worrying about whether others think I am cocky when I play sports, so much so that I kind of zone myself out and don't look at people because I'm afraid that will confirm this to them (silly, I know). Bottom line--I care what others think more than myself and God and I have struggled and struggled to be free of this. Oh, it is hard! But, good, positive, self-talking is where it's at so...

I am grateful to be me--flaws and all! I am grateful to be a spirit daughter of God.
