This post is for anyone who needs to hear this right now 🙏
I took this selfie yesterday, when I looked it over all I saw was grey hair more wrinkles, a blemish on my chin and imperfections!
Then I felt an instant sadness wash over me at the thought of ever thinking so harshly of myself feelings of criticism and judgement on someone I should love most in this world myself!
So I took another look and this time really looked deeply into my own eyes and deep into my soul and it was there I saw my true beauty !
A woman who has fought many battles and overcome all of the boulders life has hurled in my direction to get me to be who I am today. I saw the love in my own eyes I have given to others along the way and I welcomed the creases around the corners of my eyes laughter had produced. I was captivated by the ever changing silver and grey strands of hair that now framed my face and the wisdom it held.
The flecks of silver now sprinkled throughout my brows and the way my forehead squishes into a myriad of lines that hold a thousand secrets thoughts fears and expansion of growth !
It is true what they say growing old is a privilege denied to many and in this day and age of technology and comparing ourselves to others it can be a hard pill to swallow seeing ourselves change with time.
It is about time we see beyond the physical and start looking into the depths of our beings and search for the only thing that truly matters and that is our unique self who has evolved into an infinite powerhouse of love light and knowledge to pass onto the next brave souls who choose to enter this world.
Let's choose not to pass down our negative self talk as there is much more to this life than what we look like instead it should be who we are that truly matters 🌸
