In the classic film, “Gone With the Wind,” the character, Scarlett O’Hara is seen clutching the bedpost, as she is corseted, squeezed into her big party gown.
Ah, yes. The famous lie surfaces, “Pain is beauty.”
But what if she realized that her beauty and value weren’t dependent upon the fashion and trends of the time? What is she discovered she was already beautiful?
Beauty trends come and go. Fashion is fickle. It changes on a dime. We may not clutch a bedpost now, trying to inhale ourselves to a 16 inch waist, but we are inhaling some kind of forced, unnatural effort for beauty’s sake.
Let’s exhale; we ARE already beautiful! Now! As is. Without anything added TO it!
Let’s accept ourselves and breathe the splendor of who we are! We are wonderful- and worth it!
