Realization!
I have realized something of great importance to me. That I am who I am! I am not 15 anymore, I am not single and I am not skinny. I am a 30 year old woman who has 6 beautiful children, and I am proud of that. I will do my best to get fit and healthy and active. I will do this not because I want to look 15 again and not because all the many woman I see on FB or in magazines look “too good to be real.” I will do this for me, to be a fit 30 year old woman that has wrinkles, bags under her puffy eyes, messy bed head hair, a spare tire around my waist and worth every penny.
I’m glad that I have those things like puffy eyes & wrinkles because I EARNED IT. I did! I want to be the best me I can be. I want them to know that I am proud of who I am, and I am not defined by my size, my style or my clear skin. I am defined by what I do.
And I hope that I can do the things that will inspire them to be MORE like Christ and be the best version of them they can be.
Amen friend! AMEN! I need to remember this too. 🙂
