You are outstanding !

A young girl wrote this in her diary ‘Every day my mother tells me that I’m outstanding ! I don’t know why. My friend Sarah says that to be truly outstanding you have to have long and beautiful hair like hers. But I surely don’t have it. John tells me that to be outstanding you have to have bright, white and beautiful teeth like his. But certainly mine are not nice looking. Jessica on the other hand tells me that to be outstanding you need to have smooth skin without any spots like the ones I have. Marco claims that to be outstanding you have to be first in class, and I can barely make it to the top 10. Stefan says that to be outstanding one has to tell the best jokes. And I don’t know any  good jokes. On the other hand my friend Laura says that to be outstanding you have to be living in a beautiful mansion with a large swimming pool like the one she lives in, and our house is so simple and poor. Alfred proclaims that to feel outstanding any young person has to wear the brand names of clothing, shoes, jewellery etc. And I definitely cannot afford them. Every evening, at bed time, my mother comes into my room and says to me that I’m outstanding and she loves me very much.' Remember that at every second of our lives, God is hugging us and tells us ‘You are outstanding, and I love you dearly, even though I know many faults you made, and I ignore them all.’
