Darlings,
I know this is a touchy subject,
specially in this age where everything is out
there for others to see, judge, and/or admire.

It is so easy to forget that these are not places meant for us to build our alter egos,
or what we believe are "better" versions of ourselves. The ones others might like best.
Versions based on what we have and how we look.
We must all remember that when we invest our time BECOMING the best that we can be-
a more loving, caring, honest, and compassionate version of ourselves,
that's when we shine the brightest.

OMG Mariel. What a wonderful post. I completely agree -
You couldn't have said it any better!
This is so important to remember. Especially because I love taking photos, and making things look beautiful- but of course, the far more important thing is how you feel on the inside.

this is a great post -- and something i've been thinking about a lot lately. i'm trying to keep my camera on the shelf as much as i can this week, and get back to journaling, writing lists -- the verbal side of things. it's opened my mind up to so many things that were once at the forefront, but have receded lately.
xo.
Wonderful food for thought and such a great quote...love it!!! :)
Love the quote dear and very well said. I know of a person who pressures herself to travel, travel and travel just so she could have pictures to post on her blog and on instagram and she told me that it is becoming too expensive just to maintain a good blog and have great photos on instagram. tsk tsk tsk.
