Celebrating Women

Here's a little note I wrote to myself but can be truly relevant to every woman.
I looked at myself in the mirror today and was so overwhelmed by how beautiful I looked, even before I had put on my make-up and taken off my sleeping cap. It made me feel so good to look at my face and beautiful eyes. In that moment I realized: hey, I am beautiful.
Even if no one tells me today (husband included), I am beautiful. My beauty does not need anyone to acknowledge it anyway. It is there, and whether its spoken about or not, it is there. I know what I saw. It will be great for someone to notice, but even if they don’t, it wont take anything away from me.
I need to worry when I walk into a room and conversation does not come to a standstill. I am beautiful, this I know. When I walk into a room I will hold my head high and my confidence will be soaring because I know I am beautiful. If beauty is a power, I have it. It may not cause things to happen around me like I want, but it can fuel my confidence and my energy.
I need not be afraid of meeting new people, of being in the spotlight or being the topic of conversation. In fact, I need not be afraid to speak up and be noticed, to make myself the topic of conversation. I know when the attention is on me, I am a pleasure to look at. Even if no one thinks so, I shall not adjust my posture or shrink into myself, because I am totally besotted with my looks.
I don’t feel like an underdog. I am absolutely fine. As I step out today even if nothing else goes the way I want it to go, I’ll still have those fine eyes and the lovely smile. I’m beautiful and I know it.
