five minute friday:: when i look in the mirror i see {& giveaway winner!}

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

mirrorme 002 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)
