I was living my life from the outside in instead of from the inside out.  I was basing my worth on what I thought others thought of me.  Throughout the past few years I have come to believe that God loves me just like I am and that gives me confidence to be who I truly am.

The end goal is to have the sweetest parts of life come from the inside.
