@VetVictoria Hi there, happy to see your message. Thank you so much for the helpful details, that's very kind of you. And yeah, many people can't see past the flaws which is truly sad. I wish I could somehow change that, the world would indeed be a happier place. :D

@Alanna Okay I know we don't really interact as much, but if I can answer, it would be because those people don't have compassion for themselves, and hear me out. From my perspective, I have a hard time with being kind to myself and I sometimes push myself or get insecure with where I am. With that, I'm working on it and trying to also see myself for who I really am, past my flaws which at times can be difficult. With people who are unable to 'see past flaws' they lack application of that empathy that allows them to have compassion for themselves and others. They probably are their own worst critic and most likely, will be insecure and at worse envious of people who do better in life in comparison to them. When they point out your flaws, they hope to break you and make you feel less comfortable shining in your own light, so if you need to respond back to that, one you can treat them like their a narcissist- keep it short and don't invite them to see your emotions- or two, compliment them on something and they ask a backhanded question that will make their world turn upside down for them. Because as much as people like these are heavily critically of everyone and everything, sometimes they need a reminder to center what really matters- reframe the conversation to that and see how it goes! Let me know if you have anymore questions or if you need me to explain anything else more! Toodles!

@Alanna Hi Alanna, remember me Pia? Used to work with you when I was in the Ambassadors. How are you? 
            And to answer your question above, I really think some people are jealous and want to put someone else down ... it's something I can relate too cause since I had cancer at a young age and now I'm an adult ... that's the no.1 thing they focus on ... next, since I'm smart to do the right things ... others don't like that. That's me in a nutshell... LOL! Beauty ... I'd like to say we all have it, (I'm not talking about the beauty outside of you, but personality wise) Can say there are beautiful people out there, but attitude is terrible. =Just sayin' *smiles*

@Alanna Hi Alanna! It's nice to hear from you! How are you? Things for me are fair. I have been having a difficult time with my left foot. Sometimes it's painful, other times it's not. Had it x-rayed last month and will see the foot doctor on Wednesday. Hope it's not that serious. And I have diabetes so it's rough. But I get by. *smiles* Take Care and thanks for keeping in touch!

@Glory_feeling2 Hey Pia!
            It's so lovely to hear from you. I totally missed this.  Thanks for sharing that. That did make me smile. :D
            Hope you are doing well over there.

@Alanna Hi Alanna! Remember me? Pia! How are you? Yes I agree with you on wearing a smile ... used to be when I was young I wouldn't do it. Had to do with being in the hospital for so long ... what's their to smile about when you are sick? And I admit I was envious of others who had a better life than me. But you learn as you grow up that life isn't what you always think its about. It has its twists and turns. So Smile!!"

@Alanna !!!

@xmarzyx Thank you!
