Actiniae, by Ernst Haeckel, 1870s For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with gratitude;
1 Timothy 4:4
"Why is it that we don’t accept who we are? I don’t know about you, but I look at others around me (friends, people in the news, in movies, athletes, co-workers) and compare how I look . . . my clothes, my physical features, my sense of humor, my speaking ability, my communication skills, my car, my cell phone, my glasses, the color, length and fullness of my hair, and my experiences.
"If you’re like me, you always come up short and feel intimidated."
