If only we could see ourselves through someone else’s eyes from time to time. Maybe we would not be half as critical with our appearance… I always loved this song by Lunic and the message behind it. Just imagine you could actually see yourself through a different pair of eyes every now and then… What would you see?
My different pair of eyes are my husband’s. And he definitely sees me in a different way than I often do. When he explains what he sees I often don’t find words. I don’t handle compliments that well, you know 😉
A Momma's View 
It is always interesting how others see us. The most wonderful view is the one of people who truly love us. That’s the view that makes us discover our own beauty again.

I often wonder if I were somebody else, would I be friends with me I am now. I wish I could get my DW to see herself as I see her.

Oh I know… I guess by telling her how you see her you already get far.

This is a great post. I hold the bar very high for myself so naturally sometimes I fail to reach the level I set and I get down on myself. My son will give me a hug and say something like “Mom, chill a bit here” and list all the reasons he thinks I’m amazing. Some days I can’t help but wonder if I am the person he sees.

Love what you wrote. I guess the worst critic is yourself. Sometimes I wish I can get into other people’s head and really see what they really, really think without all the pretenses and the fluffs!
