so here’s the deal. i’m hooking up with the gypsy mama for five minute fridays. rules: write for five minutes on the assigned topic. no more, no less and no editing. so here goes:
START
when i look in the mirror, i see a woman who is not yet complete – a work in progress.
i see a woman who yelled at a disobedient child this morning. a woman who chose anger over patience and love.
i see the visual after-effects of graves disease.
i see no makeup, no fancy hairstyle and no contact lenses. and it bugs me. superficial, i know. but honest!
i see my dad. for many years, one person after another commented on how much i looked like him but i didn’t see it. now that he’s gone, i see it everyday and i miss him. everyday.
when i look in the mirror, right now i see a hot mess. seriously. but i hear the whisper of God’s grace. thankfully.
DONE
well. that’s not so easy. and i had a few backspaces so i may have cheated a bit on my first go-round but i’ll do better next time. (note: links and photos were added after the time was up)
