As I stare at myself, I remember when I didn’t even love this person. I remember when I would find every flaw on & in me. I remember when I would lower my standards for a man who just wanted to lower what was under my pants. I remember comparing myself to other women on social networks. I remember thinking if I was smaller, with “good” hair, I would be cuter. I remember having sex because I thought I could keep him. I remember when I thought it was cute that her man wanted me. I remember when I let the amount of likes under a picture dictate they way I felt about my looks. Sigh…..I remember. As I sit and look at me. I now see a Queen. I now see a woman that God delivered. I now see a woman who accepts her flaws. I now see a woman who doesn’t settle. I now see a woman who doesn’t allow social networks to validate who she is. I now see a woman walking in her destiny. I now see a woman who is confident with the inner & outer her. I now see a woman who doesn’t find security in a man but instead found security in God. I now see a woman who admires herself. I now see a woman who loves herself. I now see a woman who appreciates herself. I now see me!
