I was born with a big black birth mark on my back. It's shaped as though someone had stabbed my back to death in my previous life. To that my mumbling mind says "That's why it seems like Déjà-Vu, every time someone betrays my trust now".
I have a body full of asymmetries; one eye smaller than another; nose so tiny that my parents say that I was born with only two holes of nostrils in place of the whole nose; one hand bigger than another by almost a centimeter; two feet of different sizes with enormously longer fingers adjacent to toes. All these and many other asymmetries known only to me, to which my mind mumbles "There can surely never be another me, for unless I disclose these to anyone, nobody can turn as perfectly asymmetric as me".
I'm sure everyone is their own kind of unique. How accepting we are to our asymmetries is totally upon our outlook towards life as a whole and our individual selves in particular.
It'll take it's own sweet time. You'll hate yourself some days. You'll seem too fat (thin) to yourself some days, too many marks on your body, or maybe not as glowing a skin as you wanted, despite the thousands you spent on cosmetic remedies. I tell you, one day soon, you'll give up on being perfect, you'll stop the external cosmetic remedies that torch your body, your mind, your peace.
The same mumbling mind will give you the answers you need; the pep talks you want someone out there to give you; the "best-friendly" advise that you seek from someone else- it'll give you all.
All you need to do is be okay with who you are, strive to be a better person; healthier than yesterday, happier than today and content than ever before.
