I have fallen in love.
I needed a better shot of myself for facebook so instead of waiting for the right photo to happen, I got my camera set to self timer and just started taking photos.
I suddenly saw this beautiful woman there. but how can that be??
I was feeling so the opposite all day and gone through quite a bit lately. but suddenly today I fall in love with this woman- for the first time ever I think!
I was always so full of self criticism, but now, suddenly that voice is gone. Im in love! she is stunning! wow!
I know, for some this comes naturally, but I was never one of those, I actually think that in my teens and twenties I was the most self critical and self destructive person I know...

I will start treating myself better now. Oh my , how did I not know how wonderful I was??

Yesterday I decided to go on a man diet: meaning no dating, no falling in love, no crushes, no expectations for 30 days.
I just felt there was too much stuff happening in this area, meeting many guys, but I wasn't attracting the right stuff.
So I decided put the whole thing a side, and what do you know? Ive discovered me! and how wonderful I am!
hope this lasts. I don't want to ever critisize myself again.
