Through the looking glass..

"Beauty is truth's smile when she beholds her own face in a perfect mirror. "
- Rabindranath Tagore

I saw myself naked in front of a full length mirror the other day..twice, while in Fredericton. Sort of caught me off guard and made me think that maybe I was in one of those circus mirror tents. Could this be me?

Even though I'm approx 64 pounds lighter it was still as shocking as it probably would have been at that point. I had to remind myself that things are getting better and will get even more so. While it was strange to see myself at this weight I can't really imagine what I would have felt before. 

It's amazing how we are so willing to over look things for such long periods of time. Mirrors and windows are everywhere but they go unnoticed when we are don't want to see what maybe is inside of them.

I know I am beautiful. There is no one else anywhere in the world like me. 

This me is changing but there needs to be more acceptance for the me I am now.

Beauty is beauty.
