And that is beauty...I think. We all have little things we don't like about ourselves. Our cottage cheese, our nose, our hair, our waist, and of course the list goes on. As you all know, for me its the struggle with Ms. Prego standing strong and firm.
I was getting ready for a shower after one of my morning workouts and as usual was frantically trying to stay on time. As I headed to the bathroom I passed my mirror just as I do every morning. But instead of rushing past like usual, I took a moment to stop, breath, and savor my goodness. My eyes were radiant. Alive from the adrenaline and hard work I had just completed at the gym. My skin was a bit clammy from the workout, but still smooth as silk. As I allowed my eyes to pass from the tip of my nose, to the crease of my breasts, and down to my navel I turned to the side. Profile. Yep and there she was in all her glory. Ms. Prego as prominent as ever. And I felt powerful. I did not suck in nor squish nor prod. I allowed Prego to just be and live in her glory. In her strength. In her beauty. Now if I can institute this mindset every day I will be set in coming into acceptance of what my body tells me is beauty.
