Noticeable Changes

So, lately in my life, people keep telling me that I look great, and some say better than I ever have. I hadn't taken much notice in that until now to be totally and completely honest.  My aunt made a comment on my Facebook recently that got me looking at who I am. 

I have never felt like the glamorous girl that all the guys want.  I'm a "bigger" girl, so I have never personally felt that way.  So, I got looking at my life, and what had changed in it.  The only thing that I can think of, is that I am happier than I have been in a VERY long time.  I almost forgot what this girl looks like.

So, I was reminded of this particular Audrey Hepburn quote.  More and more I am realizing that this is true.  I am happier, I am more confident, and I really feel beautiful most days.  I can't say that of every day, but I don't know a woman out there that can honestly say they feel that every day.  They may say it, but I don't know that they always feel it. 

As in my last post, I also think that I know better who I am now, and I am also with someone who is amazing, and understands that.  We are still learning about each other of course, but I also know that he knows me better that I know myself some days.  I love learning new things about myself, and new things that I like. So, to those out there who want to have a noticeable change in their countenance, find your happy place.  Learn more about who you are. Embrace your awesomeness!

So, even though I am not a stereotypical beauty, I am a beautiful woman, who deserves to live a full and happy life. I'm sad it has taken me this long to figure that out, but at the same time, I wouldn't change the journey I have had, because it would have altered me.  I don't know that I would be as grateful for the good in my life if I hadn't had to struggle for it. 

All my love,
