It’s true when they say that nature is the best artist. Just look at the perfection of a blooming flower or the symmetry of a snowflake under a microscope. There is truly nothing that can compare to the skill of Mother Nature.
And so this post is a reminder to everyone that we should enjoy our own beauty, despite the “flaws” that we see within it, because we are exactly as nature intended.
It is easy to see the beauty in other things and other people. But so difficult to see the beauty within us. I was watching a documentary about loving your age, and Sharon Stone was talking about her journey to aging. She looked at pictures of herself in her 30’s, and said, “I was so beautiful then! Why did I never see that?”
We sometimes forget to appreciate the little things that make us beautiful to others. Maybe its the tilt of our smile, the glow in our eyes when happy, or the way kindness shows in our face. It can be the smallest thing that makes us look beautiful. And its always good to appreciate it and not always look to what is missing.
I am just now beginning to really understand the way I was intended to be. I will never love everything about myself. But I can accept them all. Because at the end of the day, I am exactly as nature intended me to be.
This was lovely. Thanks for sharing. Your right we need to appreciate the little things about ourselves and life.

Awe Lesley this is beautiful, I know this is so true… It is really all about valuing ourselves… we say awesome things to other people but we never think those things of ourselves…
I hope you don’t mind that I share something with you, I have been having a tough time, I don’t ever really write it all in my blog… this post reminded me how I need to remember to value myself and say good things… so thank you :) Have a great week ahead :)
This can be difficult at times seeing your own imperfections and trying to accept them, but I have understood with years passing by, that this is the most right thing to do but the best is to work on these ‘flaws’ and become as they say ‘a better version of yourself’. Thank you for sharing this piece of great wisdom darling! <3 xoxo
