mirror mirror on the wall


i hate those days when i wake up and see myself in the mirror
looking for grace and elegance


but only noticing all the greys and wrinkles


and wonder if the mirror is a convex one
muttering to myself
... surely i can't be that big?

Ha! Ha! We all have days like that. That's why i wrote a poem one time that tells all the reasons why "I love me!" ^_^

I just belly laughed right out loud at the warthog and rhino buns. At least I can take comfort in seeing that I MIGHT look a tiny bit better in middle age than they look now! Ha

Kamana, this made me laugh, we all have days like this....my sister phoned the other day and said she looked in the mirror and that her eyes were sagging, she meant her eyelids. I told her to get a good night sleep and she would be fine. I have noticed on pinterest the faces that I tend to pin are the ones with lines and wrinkles, somehow they seem more interesting to me....and don't change a thing with your blog. It has been beautiful every time I have visited. hugs to you.

oh i can see myself in your pics
and hear it in your words too,
friend.
i wonder if that is all a part
of living female in this
broken world.
i love your sense of humor:)
i think we must laugh.
(a friend tagged me in a facebook photo of me hiking....i was in front of her.....and i was dumbstruck by
the angle and SIZE of my behind
posted out there
for the world to see.
ugh, the humanity.
love to every bulge and wrinkle
and the beautiful whole of you,
Jennifer

LOL! The laugh I hear is one a little rueful, however! Thank you for reading my mind!
