Don’t worry about what other people do,
Just Do You.

I am who I am.
I was created to be me.
I’m perfectly imperfect.
I’m not the best artist, but I’m not the worst.
I’m the best I can be, that’s me.
I have an overbite, I have poor sight.
But I can speak for what I believe and
see beauty around me.
I make the best of what I’ve got
And fill in where I have not.
I’m strong, brave, driven, creative,
Encouraging, positive, faithful, thrifty...
I’m me.
I could say what I’m not, but wHat good would it do?
I’m me through and through
And you are you.
I use What God have me to the best of my ability.
That’s me.

As I grow older, I am happier with myself.
I remember when I was young, I was so lost and had no idea of my ID.
I was looking to others to show me who I was.
What was my purpose? What was I good at?
I was always looking up to other women who knew who they were and lived with confidence.
My neighbors, my friend's moms, my teachers and even strangers helped shape my identity.
In order to find out who I wanted to me, I had to know what I DIDN"T want to be.
I found people that I have never even met that I identified with.
I realize that when I admire something about a person, it is really a hunger to grow that part of myself. If I admire a characteristic enough, I try to find that inside myself.
I really love Iris Apfel.
She makes up her own style based on her own rules. She is an inventor of herself.
She does what makes HER happy. She just does her own thing.
I drew these picture of her because she inspires me to be more... well, me!
I think once we find out who we are not, it is easier to find out who we are...
That's why I love this song so much.

I'm not the money I make, I'm not the man I love,
I'm not a photograph, I'm not
I figured out a person can be multifaceted.
You can have different styles depending on your moods.
Part of loving yourself is embracing your flaws that cannot be changed.
It's about gaining confident in who you are even if it's not perfect.
I have an overbite which makes me a mouth breather.
But I love it. I embrace it.

Get it here...
Frida Kahlo had legs that wouldn't work right and were mis-shaped.
Instead of feeling sorry for herself, she wore long skirts and fancy shoes.
She had a slight unibrow, but accentuated it to make her unique looking.
If you can't change it, embrace it!
She wore accessories as decoration to take your notice of the negative and see the positive.
She became a strong woman fashion icon for this. He weaknesses made her stronger.
