Whilst peroozing through a fashion magazine the other day I saw letters that woman had written to their bodies. This sparked so many wonderful feelings inside of me. What a good idea! Some ladies wrote how they were sorry for putting their bodies through such abuse, others wrote to say thank you for carrying their children. This made me think of how we treat ourselves as woman? do we treat our bodies with love and the tender care it deserves?
As 2013 has approached New year resolutions seem like the thing to do/write. We are so easy to place expectations on ourselves, like how we are going to do more! be more! Sometimes I think to myself and realise how harsh and unkind I have been on myself. How I have been so upset with my body for not changing on my second day of dieting or how I should've read more of the book next to my bed. Where does contentment come into the mix of things.
So, this year I have decided to be kind to myself. To dream of doing great things but also be understanding of myself. They say that we are often our own biggest critics and I think that is so true. This year I will most definitely TRY be kinder and more loving to myself, regardless of whether I do well or trip on my shoelaces when trying to look glamorous in the mall.
Another thing I hope to implement into my life is to look for the good in every situation and in every person. What a prettier world I will see when I look for the good. The truth stands that 'we don't see things as they are, we see things as we are'. So lets put on our rose tinted sunnies as the year approaches and look for the good, noble, lovely and hopeful in each and every dear situation.
With that said, let me toast to a great year, full of possibilities and hope! 2013 we are ready for you! Below I wrote a short note to myself, maybe you could write to yourself too... Oh! and please don't to respond to your own apology.
Love,
Sarah
