Almost Home

Africa was amazing! It's been a long few days, with 45+ hours of traveling; and now I am (finally!) about to board one last flight on my way home to San Diego. Can't wait for a hot shower and my comfy bed! :)

Beauty

I just wanted to share a quote I read recently from the book "Do You Think I'm Beautiful" by Angela Thomas. This book really struck a chord with my heart, and I wanted to share a portion of it here:

"Our thinking has been shaped by junior high taunting, unflattering words from people we love, magazines in waiting rooms, cosmetic counters at the mall, the big screen and the little screen and now the computer screen- all teaching us how to think as the world thinks. I mean, how can we not buy in? After twenty or thirty or forty years of watching and reading and listening, we’ve really believed this stuff. Essentially, we’ve been brainwashed. Wrinkles should be injected. Breasts should be augmented. Muscles should be ripped. ... For heaven’s sake, where is it written? Where is it written that what the world calls beautiful is correct?”

Every woman's heart whispers this question: "do you think I'm beautiful?" And the answer is a resounding YES! Yes, you are beautiful- just as you are! Just a little something to think about. Check out the following videos from Dove...
