Worship Yourself Today ...


Conversations about the 30’s today had me pulling on my “Debbie Downer” pants and “Negative Nelly” shirt to match.

UGH!

Why do we do that? Make excuses about things that can easily be fixed. I am lazy at times, I procrastinate, and I don’t do what I rightfully know I should be doing.

When I get in the mood I can blodly argue off a defensive list of excuses for duties that I let fall into the “don’t care to do” space … lackadaisical and I know it. Yet I continue this repetitive routine.

This is where we break for libations!

Last night while out on the town I was surrounded by 20 something, bronzed skin, ponytail flipping, long legged creatures that reminded me of something I once was. I was forced to write my real age down on a piece of paper and it glared back at me.

WHAT THE!

30?

When did that happen?

Now, certainly I don’t fit the long legged description … my legs are rather like backwards bookends (see there I go again), but the air that surrounded these women was a beautiful thing to see. I was in that air before and I sometimes revert back to that place after I spend days of preparation and hours in front of the mirror primping and prepping.

Oh how I love to get into costume when I go out …

It’s so easy to put BACK things on the body that used to be somewhere else when you can afford to have Dr. Who’s it What’s it nip and tuck you back into place. But what do you do when you can't rely on this method? Blame circumstances … or yourself?

When you see an older woman, say in her late 40’s early 50’s with her stuff in order – what is the first thought that comes to mind?

My mind says – I want some of that jerky juice your sipping on … then I run to the mirror, twist, turn and pivot checking all my good areas. The places where the light shines the best in photographs, also known as “MY GOOD SIDE”. Where my stomach doesn’t split into two when I sit or bend and where my back doesn’t re-create an un-asked for pocket with certain uncontrollable gestures.

If you were paid for your looks would you do things differently? Certianly we would.


Turn it on ALL THE TIME even if you’re in the grocery store with your gym/work ensemble … we sometimes forget how beautiful we are ALL the time. That is what was beautiful about my 20 something years … I knew what my flaws were and highlighted then without notice. I didn’t give a lick about what I had or didn’t have my confidence walked through the door first and all else followed.

Make pretend these average Joe’s walking the streets are your Paparazzi Nazi’s and play into it. These pictures are make believe ... at any given moment these celebs have someone poking, pinning and tucking away all the not so plesant stuff.


Ps. did you check out the images of the 30 something club serving it up to the 20 something brezzy's ... with a little more style and finesse! I love a good dish...
