No I Will Not Shut Up

Throughout my years of being a social lite, I've come across many compliments towards my looks and an equal amount for my personality. I've kinda built up a reputation for being somewhat of an extremist, saying what everyone thinks but isn't quite bold enough to say out loud. Fear of judgment is not something I have, fear of heights, I suppose may somewhat be relevant to one another. Nevertheless, my attempt to stay in today and share my thoughts are also my journey to understanding my fears as to why I'm so afraid to be dumb. I've come to learn that wearing high heels and my hair down in bountiful curls is not when I'm most beautiful. I saw myself today for the first time, and I have never seen a more enticing young women looking back at me. Her eyes full of passion and understanding, her lips honest and raw. The water streaming down her cheek refreshed every guilt her beauty mark stated. By which to say, I'm never more gorgeous than when I'm vulnerable and I'm never more smarter than when I'm dumb.

  1. Beautiful, Sandy. Glad to finally peer into your heart and mind and see the truth about you I've been waiting for. Knowing that you never wear your heart on your sleeve, it's nice every once in a while to see you wear in on the page. Much love...
