RE: My body has long ago stopped being conventionally beautiful, but is that a problem?

Thank You For Yet Another Deep Post On #womenspeakout !

I feel as people we naturally value beauty in ways that have been made out to be very superficial in our society. Beauty Represents Vitality, Beauty Represents Balance, Stamina, Sanity in a sense. I think from the lifestyles we live aging comes quicker to us as women then it should. I think The Older woman is what is to be revered and seen as the most beautiful, because with all the knowledge + wisdom we attain we chizzle into our beauty. Taking care of our Physical being so that we can always look in the mirror ad feel like the most beautiful person alive is essential to a woman's health I feel. Something we are shamed for doing as we have babies and get older, as if we're selfish for loving to take care of our cells.

Powerful Post, Thank You For Sharing !
