"These images have been sitting in my drafts for weeks, but I don’t know what it is about tonight that’s given me the courage to post it rather than delete the draft. So here goes. I’ve spent more than half of my life being unable to see any kind of beauty in who I am or what I look like."

Further in the note, Anshula pointed out her imperfections and shared that she always judged her appearance. Reflecting on the same, she revealed that she felt that her curls were unmanageable and frizzy, her shoulders were covered in stretch marks, and her arms were too big to be bare. She added how she was insecure about her lips and chin, Anshula penned:
"Whether it was the curls that I called unmanageable & frizzy, or the shoulders that were covered in stretch marks, or the arms that were too big to be bare, the upper lip that was so much thinner than the bottom lip, or the chins that were always doubling and tripling. Why is it that even though you learn never to judge a book by its cover, you fail to show the same grace to yourself? Always judging what you see outside, without even looking at how brightly the inside shines through?"
However, Anshula added that despite her insecurities and imperfections, she never thought that she could embrace her beauty. Emphasising the power of celebrating one's inner beauty, she revealed that she loves every part of her body as her unconventional looks make her unique. She concluded:
"I never understood that I can show myself the grace I am able to show others, that I can and should love who I am regardless of what I look like in a pair of pants or in the mirror. That my hair is beautifully wild with a unique story of its own, my skin has grown and stretched to make sure it can carry me through every phase of life. I never saw the lips that could speak words of love and courage. I think I quiet like this side of me that allows myself to celebrate every part of me that may never be “conventional”, but it all comes together to make me uniquely ME."
