I came across an old picture of me from my 20's and I sat there studying the picture, being envious of that girl with her glowing, wrinkle free face and her tiny little waist and flat stomach and then it hit me: I remember being that age and looking in the mirror and only seeing what I wasn't. I didn't have thick, lustrous hair. I was too pale. Too skinny! I didn't like what I saw. And I knew if I could go back, I would glory in that old skin. I realized then, that every age and every moment is one to love, to cherish. I've become a lot more comfortable in my skin. It's just a shame that skin is so saggy now.Joann Mannixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11163491824085428085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1991265338210422893.post-16943242948668956592011-02-08T08:05:06.240-06:002011-02-08T08:05:06.240-06:00Sigh.
