So I've been having a rough week. I was in a relationship that was suddenly going sour, and it officially ended on Tuesday. Break-ups are really hard for me so I was feeling awful about myself. After class tonight, I went into the bathroom and looked in the mirror, and right there in the middle of the mirror was a sticky note. It said "You are beautiful!"

It made me smile! I was so happy that someone took a bit of time out of their day to give someone a little encouragement. They didn't know who would see the note, or how it would impact them. They just did it out of the goodness of their heart!

It made me step back and look at myself in the mirror. I am beautiful. And so are all of you! On the bottom of the note, there was a website name. It's www.operationbeautiful.com

I can't wait to post a sticky note for another girl to see. Everyone needs a little encouragement sometimes, and I'm so grateful to whoever posted that sticky note.

    I found this message written in lipstick on a bathroom stall in the Philly airport after I'd just said goodbye to siggy.
    Yes it was the perfect time.

    I love this idea. I really do.

    I love this:)

    it just goes to prove no matter what we say, it can impact someone in ways we don't even know. So we need to try to say good things;) non hurtful things.

    What a happy "accident"

    oh! and ((hugs)) you are NOT defective! There is nothing wrong with you. Break ups happen and they make us stronger. I'm sorry that happened to you, and before you know it, you will be feeling okay about it and realize you didn't need that jerk anyhow:)

    <3 Ronney...

    and you ARE beautiful:)

    I would say you're welcome, but then I'd have to explain what I was doing in the wonen's bathroom :blushing:
