I accept what I cannot change
like freckles, age and height,
Find what brings a smile to my face

Invite myself to love who I am
sensitive, obedient & ornery alike,
and forget what he said,
seems I already did.
Accepting oneself? Hmm. Made me think of this:

Define yourself by your best qualities. Don’t let someone who is limited try to define you. You are better than that.
