"It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see."
--Henry David Thoreau
What do you see in the mirror this morning? Was it your teenage size self? Your biggest self? Your right now self? Those dang mirrors are set like the scale sometimes, but it is important to look now and then!
We can look at ourselves in so many different ways, some of time begrugingly like last night looking at vacation pictures when I said, oh delete that one. Hmm I thouight then, no don't delete it, keep it right there let me see what I looked like on that day with those clothes...argh!
How we (maybe only I) can see what we want to see is just amazing--I don't know if everyone has that gift or just people with weight issues. Or perhaps we "close our eyes when we see" if that makes any sense!
It is about what we see but it is so much about who we are, what we do, how we live our life. Feeling good about us is somewhat on the outside but look how good we are feeling on the inside, the outside will come too!
Off to Farmer's market on a cold rainy Saturday in Illinois, then Coffee with friends and grocery shopping.
Have a great day!
