So many of us were taught or ar still taught to see ourselves as "ugly" because we couldn't measure up to the Watchtower's relentless workload or the constant scrutinizing from the congregation to be an "approved associate".
Some of us still think the WT are right and we're a failed JW, we just weren't good enough. We're still ugly.
THEY ARE WRONG.
We ARE beautiful! Every single one of us! Look what we've done! Look what we've achieved!
All of us have walked away (for whatever reason) from a high control religious authority that demanded total obedience or be punished. Don't you think that took courage? It did, it took a huge amount of courage.
And if you were thrown out? Now you know the WT were frauds, how much courage do you think it takes not to go crawling back like they want you to? How much pressure have you withstood from close family and friends? How much "encouragement" from the elders have you seen for what it really is? How much false gossip and backbiting have you endured? How much real, uncondition love do you show now compared to when you were a JW?
All of us should take a look at ourselves and be enormously proud of what we've achieved. Every single one of us, without exception, have shown more courage and integrity than any JW sitting at the Kingdom Hall right now.
So don't ever let them convince us we're still "ugly". We're not. We're stunningly beautiful and we should be proud to show it. Just like Susan Boyle. She knew she wasn't a physical beauty but she had a hidden beauty that she wanted to share. Now its our turn. Lets share our hidden beauty with the world, our love, our courage, our integrity, or self-worth, ourselves.
Show them how beautiful you really are by living your life to the full, in other words, let your heart SING!
