I may not be the most beautiful or the sexiest; nor do I have the perfect body. I might not be the 1st choice, but I'm a great choice. I don't pretend to be someone I'm not because I'm too good at being me. 
Yes guys! I am new, brand new! :)
I am much confident right now, and I am sure with that.. No more depression, I've overcome it! :) Praises to God. 
I can now say I became braver because of where and what I've been through! :)
I am not letting anyone to bring me down... I've learned so much! :)
I am glad I am free to express everything here in myLot!

I am happy to know that Ed. Just put everything to GOD and He will always be there to you help you out.
Like I always said to you, trials and challenges are not the reason for us to give up, but to move on with a great faith that GOD will always be there for us.
Stay happy always Ed and you look cute with your pose. 
Take good care. You are always in my prayers.

I really want to take this opportunity to say thank you for the friendship you have given me. I just visited your blog right now and I saw your blog posted on August 8th, you made me so special knowing that I am a good influence to you.
I have always been grateful and thankful to God because once in my life, I have met someone like you. God has truly blessed our friendship and for me, this friendship is worth more to treasure than anything else.
Since from the very beginning, I have always been praying to God that somehow our friendship would really last long. Time would pass and you will meet new friends who can truly make you happy and inspire you in many ways. That alone is certainly a blessing for you and for me as well because seeing you happy would only mean that my prayers have already been granted.
I just hope that this simple message would somehow mean a little to you. I know this message is not really worth keeping, but one thing that makes it worth treasuring is that I have written this message without all my heart.

God bless you for being so nice.

I found that getting the confidence to not let people get you down is hard. It's also hard to keep that confidence.

Very right, your profile photo tells it all. You have made me run through your profile one more time, and yes! Cool changes are noticeable but I was more impressed by your new blog- amazing pictures and poetry thing made go 'Wow!'. What I'm not sure of is your inner transformation, I would be here watching watching.
Nice to hear you overcame depression too, that is commendable. Keep the spirit of conquering obstacles that come in your life and I'm sure you will be a role model of many people.

Oh, you visited my blog?
Thank you, thank you!
My blog has been with me through my so called "transformation".. I write everything I want, everything I wanted to express, everything I see around and etc.. Its really good to know that you take time to visit it. I feel good! 
I understand what you are trying to mean. I'm working on my inner self. I'm trying to become closer to God and learn his words so my inner self and my heart will be filled of positivity and let out the negativity! :)
Thank you for dropping by at my profile..

Hi edsss. i am happy to know about the good transformation. I myself don't have much confidence about myself. I am not sexy and beautiful but I know I wouldn't let myself down just because of this. Go girl!! We need to overcome depression. We need to boost our self-esteem. I may visit your blog later. Happy mylotting.

edsss17, you seems to have overcome a great depression by humiliation - reiterating your physique as the point of concern. You and your immediate environment is very particular about it, as it seems as you present. However, I find your discussion defensive in nature. Is it true that you overcome your fear or you wrote this to convince yourself that you have overcome it when it is not? Your outlook towards personality and self confidence is good, as it perceive in this discussion of yours - very extrovert and reliable. But, it doesn't seems to fit with your actuation. I stand corrected if I'm wrong. Responses would better convince me than silence. Since we had made this initial intriguing discussion, let's continue by your response. My point is not to delude your objective, rather to make the discussion running - hopefully smoothly. I swear nothing personal in this, partly a learning potential for me and to all who may be interested to join. Again, I am with you for all the best you may want for your self.

Guess what? Your response just made me smile.
Yes, its true! I have overcome my fears not totally but at least its working. Before, I feel like the whole world is against me but now today, I swear that I can see how beautiful life is and the world itself...
Again, I have not totally overcome my fears but somehow I think I have improved. I've done few things this week that I am afraid to do before.. I am not afraid to talk to people I don't know..
I've learned that if I don't do any actions by myself, then who will?
Thank you for your response. Don't worry, I don't feel anything bad about it. I instead feel glad!

Such powerful words my dear! :)
Appreciate it very much. And of course, I would love to talk to you about anything one of these days. Is that fine? :)
God is powerful and very genius.. He gave me challenges for me to face it and overcome my fears for me also to be confident.
Stay safe! ?

Its good to make change for the better but always make sure you stay who you are. Making a better change can be good for putting yourself out there to be noticed and get attention. Its good to get attention every once in a while as it is good for self asteem and raise yourself to better standards of course. You want to feel good about yourself and the way you are as a person but deep down in yourself you want to be who you want to be in life and feel good about yourself too.
Good luck with the change and the process it might take.
