Finding Myself ..

'Finally, I found me. Finding myself was not something that came easily. In fact, it was a process. It took some self reflecting, self developing, it took being completely open with myself, it took being 100% of being (real). It took being naked in areas where I wanted to keep covered. When you are finding yourself, you begin to see you. If I am honest, finding myself gave me days of crying. And it was through those tears, I grew. It was through those tears, I matured. It was tough those tears I sought out the woman I wanted to be and the woman I am proud to see in the mirror. It was through those tears I found me. Each day I woke up, was another opportunity to dig deeper. So, digging deeper is what I did. Each day I woke up was another opportunity to see something about myself that needed changing. So, I would make changes where needed. Each day I woke up, I was determine to find me. Each day the opportunity presented itself, was another opportunity for me to get it. And guess what? I got it - I got it! Through the building and tearing down, I got it. When a person finds themselves, you can move away from all the opinions of others. When a person find themselves, they begin to know exactly who they are. When I look inside the mirror, I love the woman that I see. When I look in the mirror I can love the reflection because the reflection is me.
