It's like the world lately is so concerned with what other people see and not what they see or feel. When we do that, we get sidetracked and we cause all kind of unnecessary emotions about whether we're good enough, whether people actually see us. What can we do to make someone else happy instead of focusing on ourselves? I've been hearing a whole lot of things about love and relationships. Isn't Valentine's Day over? Just had to ask myself that question

I see a woman who, in some instances, is very fearless and in some instances, very fearful. I see a woman who has a lot of passion. I see a woman who is strong. Not by the world standards, but she's strong because everything that she's been through, she didn't let it break her. She let it make her. She's strong because she can smile through the pain. And when I say the pain, I mean the physical pain

Hey, Andrea, I want to thank you so much for responding and for allowing yourself to be open, because a lot of those things that you said, I know, were things that you had to really connect to yourself to say. And I just want to tell you that I'm appreciative, eight of you, and I'm grateful for you being true and for you being willing to unveil yourself. Thanks so much. She

Hi, Keesa. This is good. This is good food for thought. And this is a good exercise. And I love your description of yourself. And I think I could probably rattle off a bunch of things about me, but I want to take some time with this. I think I actually want to go look in the mirror, sit in the mirror with myself for about 510 minutes, see what comes to mind, see what is there, and then circle back to this swell
Not saying that outcomes are important, but the process of loving ourselves is key because there are going to be times when we take steps back, and then from that point, we have to figure out how to move forward. So wanted to say that. And another thing was looking in the mirror. It reminded me of a scene in one of Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan books. And Jack Ryan was his protagonist. And one night he was vice president, and the next morning he was president

You ask me what do I see when I look in the mirror? I see someone with a beautiful heart and soul. Someone that is strong hearted, loving, caring. Someone who loves beautiful things, like nature, in people with good hearts, like minds. I see the good in everyone, even when they're not good. But when I also look in a mirror, I see a little girl who once was afraid of this big old world and grew up and is no longer afraid

But the second time I did an exercise like that, it was his book. And you wrote down all the things that you thought of yourself negatively, but you made it a positive, and you put it on your mirror and you remove these note as you believe them. But this is different because I'm asking, like, what do you see now instead of what do you want to see? So I thank you so much. You got to come back and let me know. Bye

And when I first started, I was in the, oh, I want this person to feel good. Now I know that being in a management position, it's about the numbers, it's not about the feelings, which is sad. So I kind of struggle with that sometimes. But I'm going to still make sure that people get what they need and they're all treated with respect, even with the numbers. Thanks again

Woody, thanks so much for responding. You're absolutely right. You know, we have to see in the mirror what we want other people to see or to think of us, because if we don't think it, then they. They're not right. So I'm glad that you see all those things about yourself in the mirror. And it doesn't necessarily matter what people think about us. It matters what we think of ourselves. And this is. Sorry. This is our journey

And I won't forget it was an older woman that I was lamenting to about it. And I was like, I think it was his birthday coming up or something like that. The guy was dating at the time. And I was like, and I got to go buy something that he's not even going to remember. And she said, why are you buying lingerie for him? She was like, you never buy lingerie for the person you're dating

Every blemish, every imperfection, to every perfect curve that she believes is perfect to her smile, to her shaved head, to her teeth, to her fingernails, to how she speaks. I see a woman who, at night when she climbs into her bed, that she can exhale because she knows that she has given the day, her all she has given the day, the JL that God has allowed her to be for that day

Like you said, had you. Is that new? No. Or. Yeah, it's new. Whatever. They don't really notice. But I like everything that you said about yourself in the mirror, and I believe that you are all of that. You can definitely tell that you're a very confident lady, and I think a lot of people admire you for that. Thanks so much for responding. Bye

Hi, Keitha. So this morning I was dressed for church and I stood in front of the mirror and I was ugh. But listen, before you think I hate myself, I don't. I don't. But I will say I am pmsing. I know it might be TMI, and I just feel. I know I'm bloated. It's a physical symptom, and I just feel like, everybody leave me alone. So it's how I'll be for the next couple of days

I just don't know, though, because it takes one time and I'm not planning on adding any other kids to my life. But right now, that's not an area that I'm in participating in. So I think I may take it out and give my body a little bit of a break, but I'm not for sure. I go Friday, so I'm going to ask my doctor. But anyway, no, I liked your response, and it was beautiful, as always
