You're absolutely right! We need to respect ourselves for who we are. I never experienced people calling me names because I was fat. Maybe that's because I'm a pastor's child. I don't know. But I did get called "four-eyes" when I got my glasses, and I know it hurts. Especially since I wanted glasses. Just remember that GOD LOVES YOU AND EVERYTHING THAT COMES WITH YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
