"I Hate Getting My Photo Taken"

I used to hate all photos of myself. I would do everything in my power to avoid even seeing myself because it was too uncomfortable. Sometimes I would brush my teeth with the lights off because it was not fun standing in front of the mirror in my bathroom.

What happen? What shifted? How did I get here? That’s a longer story for another time…

Today, I see photos of myself and I feel so much love for the human looking back at me.

He’s so sweet, tender, funny, and kind. And to me he’s beautiful beyond words.

I love my human. He’s so special to me.

And I’m sorry for all those years I was unwilling to see him and celebrate him.

I am so glad we found our way back to love and back to each other.

Do you relate to this? Drop a comment below and let me know.
