I love makeup, dressing for the occasion, styling my hair, because I love to enhance a God given beauty.
However I believe that to stand in the mirror, looking at a bare face, and too still love yourself effortlessly. Is powerful. I’m aware of how hard it is to love yourself, I’ve fought that battle. To see that small imperfection, and give it undivided attention. I’ve been told that I’m beautiful, stunning, etc. However there is only one person that had to make the decision to believe it. Me.
Loving yourself comes with a hard too. You are taken to be consumed, obsessed, self absorbed, full of it.
But let me make aware to you how many times I’ve been told to quit. How many reasons I’ve been given to hate who I was, how I look, or what the scale read.
Despite what I was told, I didn’t change, I’m the same Carley: I enhance my clarity. I enhanced my character, my maturity, my passion, my walk with Christ, and in this, a love for myself.
Never stop striving to be better, but do it for you. Not what sideline comments are yelled. Change is your choice. Enhance who you are now, because an enhanced you, is much more then being someone else’s idea of what you should be, or think, or look like.
This is me. I love me.
I am fearfully & wonderfully made.
