Be the person you want to be.
Be fearless, be brave, be honest and understanding.
Fight the expectations and normalcy of life. Travel, do yoga, drink wine, walk miles and learn how to ride a bike. Allow others to love me as I am.
Be adventurous.
Wear what you want, not what is appropriate or even flattering but what feels good. Bring back the best of different eras.
Take a road trip, get a tan, live off the land. Fresh fruit and wine from the bottle.
Make no excuses.
We all make mistakes and if we’re smart we will learn from them. Not always the first time, but eventually.
True beauty is effortless and you are not letting yourself go by not giving into unreachable standards set by people who want to make money.
Let your hair grow and your skin breathe.
Smile. Accept yourself. It’s sexy and it feels good.

Thanks Tasha!
so many of these resonate with me. i still cannot believe you don’t know how to bike ride?
“Fight the expectations and normalcy of life” everyday my dear, everyday!
also this “True beauty is effortless and you are not letting yourself go by not giving into unreachable standards set by people who want to make money.” yeah seriously, since when and why do women have to look like a plastic doll? often i feel like a complete oddball with my fairly natural routine (hair/minimal makeup) but i need to keep asserting that it is what makes me feel good and that people need to re-evaluate their perceived standards of ‘beauty.’ so true…it’s just a big market for them to make money.
Yes, yes, the bike thing is terrible I know! You are a true beauty.
Beautifully put!
