Popeye has a famous saying for you youngsters out there and it goes like this “I yam what I yam and that’s all that I yam.” Accepting those words and taking them to heart, in conjunction with the words of Fred Rogers, ” I like you, just the way you are.”  creates a powerful tool for self-esteem, and confidence. Accepting and embracing who you are currently with all your imperfections, and knowing that you are loved for exactly that well…

It’s such a good feeling
To know you’re alive.
It’s such a happy feeling:
You’re growing inside.
And when you wake up ready to say,
“I think I’ll make a snappy new day.”
It’s such a good feeling,
A very good feeling,
The feeling you know
You’re alive
