I have been on this site for hours, it has made me laugh, made me cry, and has made me so proud of so many people, I just had to show every one I know. I showed my boyfriend, he told me I should upload something. I had originally said no, that these all had a story had a meaning had a reason, something that should be brought attention to, that my silly low self esteem would be taking attention from those that need it, I thought that everyone just has low self esteem, that there was nothing special in me, that I am not worthy of being on this website. Then I realised how silly I sounded that this is exactly what this site is for, this is a reason, a story. So this is me, I could have chosen a photo from before that I liked, with hair and make up done, but decided one from right now at 3am will do. This is me. Vanessa

if only you knew how much those words mean.. if only you knew how utterly beautiful you are in that 3am photo.. your words and your face give this site meaning, and give me hope, and make me so proud to be a part of heroines.

thank you Vanessa.  thank you for seeing, and thank you for understanding, and thank you for showing you… you are beautiful, and you’ve put the biggest smile on my face :)
