Monday Motivators

i referred to myself as a "woman" this week.
after a shocking breath, i realized i wasn't afraid of it.
all of the sudden i was curled up and embraced by such a simple word.  
{something that i would have never picked out for myself, is now my new favorite top and has shifted me into realizing the "woman i want to be".  oh, clothes, you can be much more than fabric.}
I'd love to know what's surprising you this week?

That top is lovely, though I'm not so sure the "oblong orbs" title/description is all that attractive to us, um, women. I hadn't really thought about it until you brought it up here, but I don't know that I think of myself as a "woman." I'm kind of flummoxed...

I always wonder how I'll think of myself when I'm an older woman. There's some point when you look in the mirror and are surprised by the aged face looking back at you because you look so much younger in your mind's eye. I think that's why I love this series of portraits so much: http://www.tomhussey.com/#/SERIES%20%20/Reflections/1

So what's surprising me this week? That I've never thought about thinking of myself as a woman. And the reaffirming beauty of friendships, old and new. =)
