“Leave who you were. Love who you are. Look forward to who you will become.”

It is so easy to get caught up in the false reality and expectations dictated by social media and feel like you need to pretend to be something you are not.

This weekend we were with good friends and started playing with one of the many photo apps that uses filters. We had a lots of fun laughing and taking funny pictures.

How easy it would be to post only pictures and videos of myself with these filters.

Oh-la-la …Wow! No wrinkles! No crows feet! No smile creases! No character! … whaaaat? Where did my authenticity go?

Please love who you are - wrinkles, scars, and imperfections! We love you for who YOU are so why shouldn’t you?

I will continue to post my FB lives with my all wrinkles, creases, bulges, and imperfections because that is who I am AND that is who I want to be.

To be real is to be authentic.

I will continue to love who I am and look forward to who I will become. I invite YOU to JOIN me on this wonderful journey and just be YOU! 

 Stay strong. Stay healthy. Stay self-caring.

Hugs, Rita 🙂
