I'd first like you to take note of my new Flickr badge to the side over there. ---------->
Click on it and you can view my latest photos.
Next, I'd like to review the results of last week's poll.
The question was: Do you judge others by higher or lower standards than you use to judge yourself?
As I predicted most of us (85%) use lower standards to judge others.
I know for myself if I look in the mirror and see a small wrinkle, a bit of pudge, bags under my eyes, etc. I think look terribly ugly, fat, old, or disfigured. But were I to see the same imperfections on another, I might find them to be charming or a sign of character.
We are our own worst critics.

I could not agree with you more.
I wanted to say I was watching sex and the city the other night well like I always do and I thought wow, lucky really reminds me of Sarah Jessica Parker!
We are indeed our own worst critics. We always see ourselves worse than others see us.
You, missy, have a perfect ass and perfect hair. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
Soooooo true! I think you are beautiful and perfect in every way. :)
This really needs to change. Why can't we be more accepting of ourselves? I blame the media. :)
I am WAY harder on myself!
For instance, one of my husbands coworkers came over with his wife.
I thought she looked fantastic!
I was a bit jealous of her size until later when Dave pointed out that I was at least 10lbs lighter.
If SHE looked good at 10lbs heavier, why didn't I feel like I looked good?
I too wish it would change!
It's so much easier to see someone else and dismiss their "imperfections".
As for you...yeah, I agree with Kami up there. There ain't a thingie on you that I would change...at all.
