Best NSV from a friend

I've been at this a while now, watching food intake and exercising. I've only discussed my weight (in detail) with a few close friends. I was explaining to one of them how my trainer has me doing things now that I would have never, ever been able to do 4 months ago. How hard he is working me and really pushing me. She said "of course he is, he can see the potential in you".

What? I have potential?
Wait, I have potential! I do have potential!

Really made my day. Makes me smile every time I think about it. LOL.

    That's a good friend. Some times we get so far into our self loathing that we forget what we're made of INSIDE. In the soul, we forget everything good about our selves. Bravo.

    Sometimes we do forget what we can do. It was such a simple phrase, but really hit me! She knew it, why didn't I? LOL.
