Not every one is blessed with good looks. I for sure wouldn't dare to compare myself to the likes of Brad Pitt or Denzel Washington.However,I'm quite happy and comfortable with my "plain" (or ugly as others would say) looks.When you finish reading the following story, you certainly are going to join me in cherishing whatever looks we have.
