Over the past ten years, there have been many evolutions of me. Who is Felicia? My taste and enjoyment of foods have changed. My thoughts on certain subjects like religion and politics have changed and my relationships with friends have changed. But there are certain aspects of me that have stayed consistent. All of these aspects of me are not positive and I can be really hard on myself to become a better person each day. However, there are pieces of me that no matter how hard I try, I cannot change. These are the unique pieces that make Felicia who she is. Although I may not like all of these pieces, they are apart of me. I have learned to accept the good, the bad and the ugly of me because it’s me. Once I learned how to accept all of me, I became much more comfortable in my own skin and worked even harder to be the best Felicia that I know how to be—flawed and all!

Lesson 4: You have to accept yourself for who you are—flawed and all!
