Story 

My moment of introspection. What brought the difference in me? Many days and years I had woken up from sleep not feeling beautiful. Feeling that I had to be someone else. Feeling that I should like someone else. It was tiring because I could not find exact shell that I wanted to live in!

The search went on for a while, me rejecting the inner core of those beautiful outer shells and beginning to appreciate the innet beauty slowly and steadily. Something dawned. Ola! I was not really stuck in a terrible shell after all. The shell is for me to paint and picture.
The shell is what "I choose" to show the world, but the core is what "I truly am". So I started embracing my shell and feeling comfortable in it.

Soon, I woke up feeling beautiful. The shell did not matter anymore but my heart was filled with smile. The comfort of being I.Me.Myself. I realized I did not have to do any extra effort to be myself, that saves a lot of time you see !! That's the beauty .. no money, time or extra efforts involved. You don't need to get your lessons from anyone for being them, instead you study yourself and learn from your own mistakes becoming a better person n-one mistake at a time.

I have erred, I have hurt, I have realized I am human. I learn. I grow.

That's detoxification of self. The more we purify our thoughts, feelings, the more beautiful we wake up. I am still on my detox journey, but believe me.. it's working and it helps!
