It's Alright, It's Okay
Hey Fab Gals!

You know, people always say that weaknesses are the hardest thing to admit. I don't think that's true. Not really. I think it's often a lot easier to admit what's wrong with you, than to own up to your positives. I think, at least sometimes, we tend to pay a lot more attention to our flaws, bad habits, whatever we don't like. We might not want to look our weaknesses straight in the face, but we can always feel them around us.

Weakness might not even be the right word for it. I don't think we're really too weak to overcome the "bad" parts of ourselves, be it nail-biting, worrying, being too loud, too loud, too quiet, bloodsucking... (okay, too much Twilight for me). Even if it's something physical. Willpower can be a pretty strong force. So can Botox.

Now, I don't want to sound like a cop-out, but, well, I'm thinking that maybe sometimes it's better to just accept your weaknesses for what they are. To own them as just proof that we are just real. Only human. I mean, I've learned that if I really push myself, not much can stop me. But still, I'm not sure today what good trying to fix everything and make myself "better" is actually getting me where I want to go anymore.

Having goals, moving forward, trying new things... it's how you grow. But a helpful part of that is focus. Knowing what's actually, like, a good goal and what's worth a "Ya know what? That's cool. That's just part of me right now." Letting it go might even make you feel more Fab than fixing it. Because you are so Fab, just as you are. Right now.

xoxo
