It doesn't have anything to do with the actual meaning of this song, but whenever I hear it, I think back to my 8th grade trip to Washington DC. That was when I was still living in the US and I had this intense crush (haha) on this guy in school, which worked out horribly, and combined with having to move to a different country and deal with frequent anxiety attacks, that year tore me apart emotionally and packaged me nicely for a trip to the psychiatrist.
However, my DC trip was just the start all of that, so this song really pulls up those nostalgic feelings and stands as a reminder to much I can lose if I don't believe in oneself... or think of myself as "beautiful"
So yeah, everytime I hear this song, it's a mixture of inspiration and nostalgia; I'm at once elated and close to tears.
This song is amazing.
