It's important to have someone who can see the beauty in us, to remind us of it when we falter. When He tells you you are beautiful, believe it. You cannot see your beauty from where you stand. He can. And if you can't believe, accept that He sees it. Belief will follow.

You should know, I think you are beautiful too. (I only wish I could have said it how many years ago.) I've read some of what you wrote in support of other people. Only a beautiful soul can do that. Just read this thread and see all the beauty flowing out of people who are hurting taking time to lend support and encouragement to another person. You are not alone. Thank you for sharing your beauty.
