As the year closes and I read the posts on social feeds of goal setting, and resolutions, I wanted to take time and reflect upon what I wanted for myself. Though I have created a list of things I wish to accomplish for the upcoming year, the thing I realized I wanted most for myself and all women is something simplistic, and yet, oh, so complicated.
Each day, I have the privilege of being invited into homes or spending the day out shopping with women of all ages and backgrounds. Each of them tell me their desires, life stories, and problems they see when they look in the mirror. While teaching them about their body-shape and style, their raw, unscripted, unfiltered selves come out as they tell me of their daily challenges and gripes with their bodies and self-confidence.
All women, so unnecessarily hard on themselves; picking apart aspects of their bodies they deem unworthy or in-need of work for future.
So, as I pause before the New Year, I realize that more than anything, my wish for myself and all of you is loving eyes.
I wish for you to celebrate the fearless, undeniably multi-faceted, one-of-a-kind, gorgeous, loving being that you are. I wish for you to raise a glass of champagne and toast to all that you have done, have looked after, and will continue to-do in the years to come. Who you are radiates a unique energy that no-one else can, and that in itself is so beautiful. You are irreplaceable.
Step into 2017 with loving eyes. When you look at yourself, speak kind, loving words that will nourish your soul and help uplift your days. And if there are somedays you find it difficult to-do just that, I will do that for you. I will be happy to acknowledge the bad-ass, brave, beautiful body and soul that you are.
Wishing you all of the love for 2017,
Christie. xo
