Let honesty make you more attractive …
The media hosts an ongoing parade of beautiful people. They even offer commentary on the most beautiful eyes, lips and buttocks, helping us to embrace both a false sense of normal and a false sense of ideal.
There is no ideal. And there certainly is no ideal for everybody — 5’10” cannot be ideal for a woman who is 5’4″. I know this!
Yet studies show that the vast majority of women are uncomfortable with their looks, particularly their bodies. But women are giving men — who live longer, stay more active and marry women half their age (I’m funny, not bitter, really) — a taste of how it feels to be gawked at, reveled in and critiqued.

When we’re scared, we shrink back. We start to hide pieces of who we are for fear of rejection or failure. Bu let’s not allow our fear of rejection to keep us from our perfection. Love’s perfection.
I am enamored by what helps me to be my best self. Often, it first appears to be a detour or a closed door. In reality, it flags a path to more of me, the unabashed, authentic me.
That’s the me I am, the me I want to live.
Let’s heed the flags!… More
