Somebody's arm must have slipped when
they cut you out. You didn't follow the pattern
at all. Su you wince when you look at your
self in the glass! There eouldn't he another forehead in the
world like that. There couldn't possibly be another mouth
like yours. Anil why under the sun did you have to l,e
blessed with two cowlicks? Wouldn't one have been enough?
If you could have only been born looking like everybody
else ! 014 you have the right number of ears, eyes and 110' , V
But what an assortment ! And are you ever stuck with them
Well, there was a little girl and she had a little curl. There
was a horse with a horn on his forehead. If you asked them
what they thought about their claims to fame she'd. say her
curls weren't cute...he'd say his horn was horrid. But i.•.ry
body knows' about that girl and that horse...because they
didn't look like everybody else!
So why not make your private thorn your trademark?
Emphasize your quirky eyebrow...concentrate on featuring
your cowlicks—play up your unusual hairline...sleek your
self to go with slick, straight hair. Instead of trying to
camouflage your secret worry...brazen it into a talking point.
Play it up...let it do something for you. Everybody's going
to see it anyhow...so let them know that you, too, know it's
there!
Make it interestittg...register• it on your audience. Make
them remember your featured feature. Should you have two
to deal with...and one a real proldem...you eau flag their
eye,: into seeing only what you want them to see. And that
take, the hurt out of thorns!
