Yeah .. those people are not "friends" anyway, because real friends support you and love you and accept you as you are.

Besides, for what it's worth, I've always thought you to be beautiful. I mean, I can't see a lot of you in your pics but there's a good one in your "About Me" where we really get to see your lovely face and beautiful skin.

You look perfectly healthy and there's absolutely no reason in the world why you should be insulted and made to change for the way you look - especially when you're beautiful just as you are.

As for the sun - Your story reminds me of one I need to share.

I used to hear the same comments as you. Was called a vampire, asked if I had any blood, was constantly told I must be sick because of the way I looked, blah blah blah.

Menopause has made me gain weight - NOT happy about how much and never thought this would happen! - so I don't get the skinny comments now. I would rather be thin like I was throughout my whole life than have to be stuck with this extra weight. It does NOT budge and I feel like I'm wearing someone else's body.

Anyway - that's a whole other story!

Thank you for sharing this and for choosing HHH to publish, Tze Lin. I'm sorry to hear people treat you this way. You're such a lovely person, inside and out, and if people don't treat you as such, they don't deserve a moment of your time! (in my humble opinion!)

And thank you for the shoutout and sharing my newsletterish!! 💜💜💜
