What do you say to yourself when you look in the mirror?

Years ago there was an episode of Sesame Street on television called “Pick Your Pet.”    It was  a version of the “Dating Game.”

The contestant was a little girl muppet and behind the curtain were 3 pets.

  Number one was a bird, number two was  a dog and number three was a big shaggy monster muppet.

 

The little girl asked number one, the bird,

” Do you like milk”?

The answer was no.

She asked the dog,

“Can you purr?” 

The answer was no.

She then asked number one and two,

“Will you sit on my lap?”

The answer again was no.

 

Time ran out and she never got to ask number three, the monster muppet any questions.

 She had to choose number one, two or three.

 

She choose number three, the monster muppet.

 

There was a big boo from the audience.

 The bird came out and gave her a peck on the cheek, the dog came out and licked her face and then it was time for number three, her choice to come out from behind the curtain.

 

The audience booed as the poor monster muppet lumbered out from behind the curtain, with shoulders hunched over, looking at the ground as the audience continued to boo and  make fun of him.

 

The little girl looked at the monster muppet and said,

“You are Bou- tee- ful.”

The monster muppet stood up straight, lifted his head, smiled and said,

“I like milk, I can purr, and I will sit on your lap.”  

Words can transform how we feel about ourselves

When you  focus on what’s wrong, it’s hard to feel good about yourself.

 Notice how you feel when you look in the mirror and focus on what you like about your looks.

 Remember “You are Bou tee ful.”
