You are beautiful, because....
I think it's really important that women value themselves and are completely comfortable appreciating the parts of themselves that they really like. Far too often, our sex immediately heads straight for the things they hate and want to change and that is not entirely our fault. Society has helped in this-with this current obsession of being rail thin and having no curves whatsoever, and the plastic surgery frenzy that I don't really think is going anywhere anytime soon. While I love my monthly VOGUE reading, it still annoys the crap out of me that all of their models are still so thin and some still unhealthy looking. There was a progressive, yet shortlived movement in the fashion business a year ago about the thin model look and some designers were speaking out & hiring girls with a little more skin. But we seem to be back to the norm. Anyway, I digress.
In order for ANYONE else to love us, we need to do that part ourselves first, right? And if we are lucky enough to find someone that loves every favorite part we love about ourselves-and even those pesky insecurities-it truly is a wonderful thing. I wish women wouldn't feel as if they were being vain or bigheaded when they openly admit the things they love about their physical attributes. Like all things, it is all about the carriage of those verbal affirmations.
Stand in front of a mirror, and point those favorites out to yourself! You deserve it.
A few of mine are...
-my neck. It is long and pale. Love it.
-my skin (face & everywhere else.) I think this is a biggie because my face has been acne ravaged for most of my life. A few pop up now and then, but it is nowhere near where it was. I was on Accutane, every cream possible, every "clearing" cleanser, much $$$ spent & wasted later, it is finally healthy. My skin was always a huge source of depression & self-consiousness.
-My freckles. They are everywhere!
-My true redheadedness
-My long fingers
-My back. It is strong and narrow. It could be better and where it once was with some working out, but hey see there I go too with the small insecurities!
-My chest. They are small, they don't get in the way. Even the most modest cleavage I have in low cut tops make me feel sexy. They help in the dancing department. I feel grateful that I am not as self-consious of them as much as my older sister was with hers, who went as far as getting herself a pair of D's.
GO AHEAD!! Do it. I swear, you will feel happy with the lovely lady you are today!

Good job celebrating your beauty! It's necessary to do so. My favorite thing abut your body: Your legs. They're long, strong, and I've only seen a small portion of what they're capable of on the dance floor, but I'm impressed :)
