Scarred but still, I am beautiful

I am Diana, an 18 year old college student, a hardworking person and love to sing & dance. I see myself in different perspectives, as I have a lot of life experiences which have molded me into who I am today. But to be honest, I am still confused as to who I really am because I believe, I’m still a work in progress, I still have to go through a lot of obstacles before I get to really know myself. However, I can enumerate the things I see about me, the different personalities I have, my passion, my dream and etc. I always perceive myself as a hardworking person because of the challenges I have passed through for the 18 years of my existence in this world. The first challenge was, the time wherein my family was falling apart even when I was just born, and it continued until I grew up and gained consciousness as to what is happening to my beloved family. And when it really dawned to me that my family is already broken, that’s when the consecutive obstacles have happened in our life. Through those, I have developed a personality where I don’t give up easily because hey, I surpassed the very first challenge in my life and yet I grew up as someone who is strong and brave. I am very proud of those two personalities I have even up to this day, it gave me a lot of opportunities to try especially in studying. I also see myself as a very passionate person; I always weigh my decisions in life through consulting my own passion, want or needs in life because after all, I just want to be happy in all those aftermaths of my decisions.

Moreover, I am a girl who is a very caring and loving one, it is because I am lacking with those that’s why I tend to give what I don’t have that much in my life, especially to my friends,

classmates, relatives and my family. I also believe I am beautiful, not just with the physical attributes but with the personality I have, I perceive myself as someone who cares a lot about the world, the people particularly. The important trait which I love the most in me is that I am an empathetic person, I developed that when I was growing up because I know what it feels like to be when I am in the lowest time of my life. I am not from a rich family but I am rich with virtues, values and responsibility because I dream and uphold myself to become someone who will help people who is living much poorer life than me. Lastly, I love to care about the nature and our environment, that’s the second trait that I love about myself. That is all that I see about me, it is still lacking because I am young and will still go through a lot of challenges in this lifetime.

People around me see me as just someone who’s with a pretty face; I’ve grown from it ever since it started with my mother & father’s friends praising my physical attributes whenever they see me. Then it continued even until now, but my friends also see me as someone who’s intelligent not just in academics but in life too. I love that they can see through me because they know I don’t just want to be called as someone who’s pretty, I am glad that they could assess my personality. When my loved ones, classmates and close friends see me perform, they would always say that I am good with singing and dancing, and I think that’s one of the things they see about me too. I also think people see me as someone who’s been through a lot but still standing and surviving to live, because it is not a secret that I don’t have a complete and happy family anymore. My junior high school classmates before would always show their admiration in my personality through letters or birthday greetings, may it be in the way I handle myself and the problems I encounter, the way I treat them with the utmost care and love, my passionate side and how I continue to smile and be happy over small but meaningful things in life. I would never forget how they became a great part of who I am until today; it is because of them who believe in my greatest potential of becoming someone who I dreamed to be.

I would like it if people would see that I am much more than this facade of mine who they admire as they describe it as a pretty one. It would be fulfilling if they will see how much I have worked hard to be a great person, which they would forget that I don’t have just a pretty face, and they would not mention it every time I dream something to do in the future. I want the people to realize that life is not just about winning in physical attributes but winning in the things that are much more important in this world. Also, I would love others and especially the people around me or who knows me to think that I am always available to help in anyways that I can. That I am Diana whom they can always reach out to whenever they feel like the worst about

themselves or in life. I want to be viewed as someone who loves herself more than anything else, that I am the only one capable of loving, accepting and embracing my flaws, and that I am confident with who I am. And someone who believes in her capabilities and value in life, I want to be seen like that by the others. Lastly, I want others to perceive me as someone who’s unique, that I am very different from others and that I have my own identity, personality and virtues. Above all those things I have mentioned that I would like others to see me, I just want them to believe in me, as a human who can do greater things in life, as someone who may not win every time but will still learn and continue reaching her dreams, because that would be the most beautiful thing that I would ever receive in this lifetime....
