Hi! Welcome to my personal & lifestyle blog.
My life has always revolved around the question mark. Why? When? How? How? I'm a questioner and always have been and i created this blog to help me find answers to things. To question the me inside myself.
So, this is your chance to tag along as i discover, as i learn to recognise my own inner voice when i hear it. As i learn the things i like and accept that it's okay to like them. Whatever they are. This is my journey, this is my treasure hunt. This is my giant question mark.
Everyday the girl in the mirror becomes new to me, everyday i learn something new about her, what she likes, what she believes, what she wants to do, where she wants to go and what she wishes for. Who is she? Everyday i see her and tilt my head to the side, squinting, trying to be sure if i recognize her. Like I've seen her before but not quite sure, i ponder 'Hmmm She Must Be New...?" because everyday a little more of her, a little part of me is.
Sometimes i judge her too harshly...but every time she teaches me.
Sometimes i post about hair respect, body types, rape, me. The results may vary! If you'd like to discover with me, you're free to follow.
Great 'About me'. I had to chuckle: my daughter had to take a mirror in to nursery today - we didn't know what for. She came running in to my arms, as we were walking along, I asked her how she'd gone with the mirror, she said 'Oh, it was just a silly game'...'we just had to look at ourselves and say what we saw'....I asked her what she'd seen and she said, "Me, I'm beautiful". She's 4. My heart died a little as I wondered how long that beautiful attitude will last, in the face of society that will tell her she's too 'whatever'...I'm thinking I'm going to make it a regular exercise, to look in the mirror, both of us together, to help guide her when the negative thoughts come....LOVE YOUR BLOG!!!!!!!!
