If you look into my eyes
you will find a young lady who has the ability
to laugh hysterically and cry uncontrollably
all in a day
You will find the jokester and life of the party
amongst her circle
Look into my eyes and you will find
I'm a mother, wife and friend
someone who puts others before her
loves those who angered her
befriends those who are different from her
brings those to tears in laughter
warms hearts with compassion and sincerity
but look a little deeper
You will find a young girl who still seeks approval
who's pain is deep and tears are shallow
but look a little deeper and you will find
the contentment of my present
the excitement of my future
the pain of my past
look a little deeper and you will find a young lady
who loves people
but wants to be alone (still tryin to figure that one out)
you will see a mother, wife and friend
deal with the curses of MS daily but ignore it
and keep it moving
you will find someone who will love so hard
til' it hurts
who has dealt with her own insecurities
not big enough, not tall enough and yes
not dark enough
Looking into my eyes will tell you
where I've been
the path I've followed
and pain I've endured
but look into my heart and you will find
where I'm headed
the happiness I' ve felt
and the journey I'm seeking
Look into my eyes......

Your introduction paragraph has my name written all over it. Once I became saved, I finally realized and accepted that this is how God made me and that there is no other Woman in the world like me. I am comfortable in my skin. Stretch marks, skinny legs, dad's nose and forehead, big hands and baby love handles (LOL)
Love, peace and blessings to you.
Have a HAPPY THANKSGIVING
@ Free- And even after all of that, you are still beautiful!!!
I really could relate to this one also. I have been through much tribulation, and it only made me stronger.

Tia because of God's Grace WE are able to keep it moving living with MS. I love your post.
@ Blinders off - Hey hon, how are you? I've missed you! Hope all is well. My cell phone signature says, "blessed by HIS grace and mercy". That's the only reason we all are alive!!! Thanks for the love. How are your beautiful girls doing?
