Yeah so I just went to mysteryseeker (the new mystery google) and I but in the message “Smile someone thinks you are beautiful
” I hope that people really feel that way now
Today, i just broke up with my boyfriend. It was an online relationship, and my friend told me that it was dangerous, so I told my boyfriend that I think we should break up. For his safety, for MY safety. I was really down in the dumps and my friend told me about this website named “OperationBeautiful.com” I decided to check it out, and when I started to look at it and check out some of the things, I fell in love with the whole idea about writing something inspiring and putting it in a bathroom or something. I am going to start carrying around my sticky notes and a marker, and do the exact same thing. I noticed that my life isnt over and that If God put me to it, he can get me through it.
God Bless Everyone!
I spent all day being mad at myself for overeating, but then I remembered that I’m beautiful no matter how I look. I immediately thought to come here and remind myself of how amazing I feel when I make others happy. Caitlin, what you’re doing is seriously changing the world!!
people like YOU are responsible for the awesomeness that is OB!
post a note and send it to me! I’ll put it up on the site!
thank you!

okay so the other day i walked into the bathroom in school nd on the mirror it said smile your beautiful in lipstick…
so, i had a lot of fun at the superchick concert! ive been through a lot in my life nd i got into a lot of trouble. just latley i found god. i didnt realize how much worse my life was until i found god nd grew a closer relationship with my father. my real blood related father lost a lot of trust in me, because no matter where i would go, trouble was caused… so i then thought i had to grow up nd learn how to respect people and be a better person. now i cant go three days without seeing my dad, nor most of the rest of my family.
God is love,

I saw a sticky note on the mirror of the public restroom, in my hotel. Wow, It totally made my day
Ever since I have been posting about that note (: Just goes to show how such a small piece of pink paper can create such a difference.
Lovely! Send me photos of the notes you post and I’ll put them online!
I was in a fight with my little sister cause I wnated to stay at the Saddlebrook Community Center but she didn’t cause she didn’t have any friends and I just broke down so I ran to the bathroom and we worked everything out and I saw a note on the mirror when we walked out and i read it. I have a lot of people call me fat or ugly so that really boosted my confidence because we were yelling at each other in a public place and a lot of people heard and I was humilliated and that note really bosted my mood cause people say my est feature is my smile. So whoever posted the note in the Saddlebrook Community Center thanks alot.
Here is what the note said in the Saddlebrook Community Center bathroom You Look Beautiful When You Smile.
I have been stuck in a rut for the last 3 years after losing just about everything in a downward spiral of events. First lost my fiance (5 year relationship) to infidelity. then my job and my license due to a DUI I got in a fit of carelessness and depression. failed a semester then dropped out of college. had to move home leaving the city that held the keys to my lifelong passion of music. and have been here for the last 3 years in a pretty deep depression. I turned 30 last week and have been trying to seek out the strength and motivation to find my way back to life and use this new decade as a jumping off point. Today I went to Barnes and Nobles with a friend and we were looking in the self help section and I came across this post it that read “you are absolutely beautiful” and the websites address. Since I got home I have made a to do list that makes it look like in about 12 months or maybe less… I can be back in that city that holds my heart living life again and fulfilling my dreams. The post it was the final push I needed. Thank you to the beautiful soul that left that post it for me. and thank you for starting this cause. I think it changed my life! <3
My friend Kathleen Bourrée sent this to me. Caitlin, I think YOU’RE an AMAZING WOMAN, too!
Venue: Eaton Centre, Toronto, Canada !!!
…
From the looks of the clothing, it was winter outdoors but certainly warm and cozy feelings indoors!
Share!
Believe!!!!
Hi all you Positive Fabulous Women,
I thought you would get a kick out of seeing this so I am sending
it along for your enjoyment!
About three months ago, Paula Roberts and Lisa Cabrelli participated in a Flash Mob Dance Video which was organized by
Kim MacGregor.
Kim created this as a tribute to her best friend Erika Heller who
died of colon cancer last year. Each and every telephone conversation they ever had, Erika would end by telling Kim “You’re an amazing woman”! Well, Kim wanted to do something special to honour her friend…. and this is the result. Please visit this site as it honours amazing women everywhere and click on this link…
HERE IT IS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfcKvevod3k .
Kim’s goal is to reach 1,000,000 viewers so, please do your part to help her reach her goal and pass this on!
Enjoy!

Today while I was running some errands I left all of my windows in my car rolled down. When I came back, not a thing had been taken out of my car, but someone had put a sticky note that said “SMILE! YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL” on my rearview mirror.
It was very touching.
Thank you for what you are doing.
Just wanted to let you know that I found one of your notes in one of those aeroplane magazines when I was reading it. It made my day
Unfortunately I didnt not manage to get a picture because I hadn’t found out about operation beautiful yet. However, im going to spain on staurday and I have my post it note pad with me ready to write messages
.
Kepp doing what your doing! You are truly beautiful x
I just wanted to let you know that what your doing is amazing and really worthwhile so I wrote about you on my blog, ( http://www.iwishedonastar,blogspot.com ) and I hope it gets more people involved.
I’m a seventeen year old, and this site was so inspirational. I struggled with an eating disorder for many years. I went up and down, and up and down. I could never find myself. I felt lost and alone. I finally realized that people love me just the way I am and was. People didn’t love me because I was rail thin, they loved me because of me, and only me and my personality. It’s so sad how many negative messages are sent out to kids my age. It’s hard to ever feel comfortable in your own skin. And the worst part of it is, these kids will go to college and deteriorate. The stress of college and the stress of what people perceive as beauty is ridiculous. I wish we could all learn to comfortable in our own skin! I really appreciate this site!
God loves u!!! <3 Morgan lol.
I remeber, I was at school, and I had decided to participate in Operation Beautiful. I posted notes all over the bathroom mirrors, putting alot of time and effort into trying to make others feel good. When I came back later, they were all gone. I don’t know if they were taken down out of spite, or girls wanted to keep them because they made them smile, but I really hope they helped somebody. Later on that day, a teacher came up to me and asked if I was the one who did it. Thinking I was in trouble, I quietly said I was. She told me she knew it was me the second she saw them, and she thought it was really sweet. It really made my day. <3
This website has inspired me to remind everyone they are beautiful. I posted tons of notes in the mall yesterday and I wish I had a camera I posted them on tables, in bathrooms, in self help books, and in the toothpaste aisle and makeup aisles of Target. I didn’t have a camera, but I used my phone to tell my friends about what I was doing, and inspired at least one friend to do the same. I felt good and happy. Thanks for the idea that changed my life and everyone else’s.
So, I have been posting videos and spreading word of something like this. It’s a self-esteem thing. And my friend told me to check this out. I absolutely love it and I’ll be posting notes everywhere I can. Anyway, awesome idea.
I’m on facebook: jocelynr94@sbcglobal.net
STOP hating your body. STOP hating your flaws.

I have been involved with To Write Love On Her Arms for over 6 months now and the love that is being poured into twloha is amazing. I do believe with all of my heart that Operation Beautiful is a BEAUTIFUL THING.and I hope women continue to know that THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL.
I was in borders yesterday browsing through the Teen Books, when I saw the “Clique” series. Although I don’t know the specifics, I know its about self hate and striving to be perfect. It got me down about life. Thats when I saw a little yellow paper stuck to the wall. It said “Smile, Gorgeous, the sun shines just for you” That made my day, especially considering what series it was by.
I think that thats amazing
Rachel;) lol.<3
Thats what I was thinking!!

this is a AMAZING MOVEMENT<3. i was actully looking up makeup info lol and there was a stickynote on the site that said " your amazing! did you know that?" i saw the website at the bottom of that note and been motivated ever since:) school starts in 2 months & this is a great way to help with highschool drama/depression. I was called ugly by alot of guys & girls 2yrs ago and now even though i get attention from guys those feelings always comeback once in while and sometimes it takes a note on the bathroom mirrior to make someones day. I wish there were more movements like this…..so many girls/women are told what they have to do or look like to be beautiful or they wont get aceppted in life & the truth is ALL WOMEN ARE BEAUTIFUL no matter what anyone says and no one should have to live up to someone elses expectations
THATS TRUE!!!
* LILY* <3…ALL WOMAN ARE BEAUTIFUL" INSIDE! AND OUT!!
