“I know, now, without a doubt that the true source of happiness,
self-worth, and authentic beauty doesn't come from the outside. Women
are constantly being persuaded to want something unachievable, to look
younger or thinner and above all to fit in because being different
is
too painful and embarrassing.
I have accepted myself in a world that does not accept me, because I
have learned - and more than any of the lessons of my accident, this is
the one I wish I could teach everybody - that our hearts matter most.
Your heart matters most, so be gentler and more patient with yourself,
and their hearts matter most, too, so be kinder and more compassionate
to others.
