I feel like ever since I was 10, I was never pretty or smart enough for myself or anyone . now that I think about it, its been killing me inside and really burning a whole in my heart. Yes, I might be 'pretty' , well to some, but I have these deep acne scars on my face that look terrible when people get close to me. and I hate the fact that I still haven't hit my goal of getting a 4.0 for a semester.

I NEVER want to be the girl who kills herself and leaves a note behind saying it happened because SHE felt she wasn't "pretty" or "smart" enough. God, I hope not.

and all the personal development I read is getting me nowhere, or at least not nearly as well as I want to be. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
