I bow gently and twirl graceful


I remember the young, I remember the old and they too, twirled and bowed gracefully.


 


With the winds blowing and


The sun shinning, I am my own best actress, my best audience, the best of all that is best for me.


 


Twirling like the bottle top, full figured and not ashamed, and in my mind, I’m still shaped like the cocoa bottle 10 years ago. 


 


In the mirror I see beautiful things from my head to toe. Full figured and proud, full figured I can get passed it, so why don’t you.


 


Its never lights, camera, action, I see my self in the sun, so I am filled with sunshine, sun shining with the wind blowing, not conceited, I’m just cool like that. 


 


I applaud first because I am the best that I can be. 


 


I applaud because I am the proud owner of myself and I know myself best.


 


Remember, I’m not conceited, but I’m cool like that..

wow! kudos to you, Rosalyn for the courage to post - and kudos to Mr. Cederberg for his final line in his review! we are all created equally...in the end. The good, bad and ugly. Praise Jesus, He can turn what is bad and ugly into good - but He also makes our thoughts beautiful, as we see ourselves...through His perfect eyes. I am certain that YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL, Miss Rosalyn! And again, like Mr. Cederberg, blessings unto you. ~ rhonda

This is an interesting take on ones self.

Although there is a hint of some narcissism in the writer, I feel there is also important undertones about the frustrations that develop when one is seen only for the superficial things and not the deeper things.

I related to this on different levels, especially the area where we strive, as individuals, to be accepted for our gifts instead of our packages.

Blessings to you
Richard
