Oh my,  Sister. You have told my story.  That girl in the "dark shadowy place"? That was me, you know. Literally.
As for never feeling princessy? Well, that's me, too. I, too, am too short, too fat, too deep a voice (contralto bordering on baritone, here, thanks, heheh), and after carrying a couple of babies that were each between 8 and 10+ lbs ... well, lots and lots of scars, etc. etc, ... but no cancer. Other than that, I'm right there with you.
How beautiful you make this revelation by telling the story so creatively. How beautiful He made it by being the author and making it true.
I praise Him every day for taking me out of the dark shadowy place and lifting me high, high, high, right up to his lap, on His throne with Him. Right up into His arms and into His heart.
Count me in, of course! (I got your personal invite, today, thanks  and have already checked in, your Majesty (mona curtsies here).
God love you. You are so awesome. What an amazing warrior He has made you for His glory. Go'head girl, witchu bad princessy self. 
Love you. Other

wow lovely!. I can relate too alot that stuff, as im sure many other women can.! i too struggle with being too fat, too short, my looks in general, being acne-fied, not tanned enough, scars, stretch marks, 'man' arms...lol ok the list goes on, but the list shouldnt have too go on if the media did NOT punch it into our heads.
As soon as that "princess' word hits the air, I immediately start thinking of Disney types of princess's. You know the ones thats wear beautiful dresses and have beautiful hair and not one blotch or clogged pore on their skin, the ones who have perfect bodies, are the right height, lots of money blah blah blah..
why is it that we as a society, look too this first, instead of looking too princesses like Esther, whose bold trust in God and love for her people impelled her to proclaim in the face of enormous risk,If I perish, I perish? Or Sarah, a holy woman who hoped in God, did what was right, and did not fear anything frightening?
I pray that the world will stop shoving standards down our throat and that one day i will be able too say ,
I dont care what you say about me, and I don't care about your standards of value or beauty. I am the daughter of the most High King and nothing will ever change that.
I look forward too walking with the rest of the, unprincessy princesses :D
Peace out.
Shani
