When I shared this graphic on my Instagram page last week, I was so happy to see a lot of people tagging their friends and family to share its message.
As a woman, this really resonates with me. There's a reason why I shared this....
Society tells us that as we get older, we lose our worth - but we know better.
We lead our families.
We rock our careers.
As Beyonce says, we run the world. :)
We may look different, but we still feel the same.
*** YOU ARE STILL A 10 ***
We get spread thinner, but we also get stronger.
With every year we get smarter, we get wiser.
We have to juggle more, but still, we get better.
We are proud of the work that we do.
Our contribution to the world may be our career, or our kids...
Often, it's both.
We have less time to eat the way we know we should.
NO time to get ready each morning.
*** YOU ARE STILL A 10 ***
We fall into bed - EXHAUSTED - at night.
We are tired - but we don't want to LOOK tired.
Our clothes don't fit like they used to...
We have sacrificed our bodies for our babies.
*** YOU ARE STILL A 10 ***
Maybe we turn fewer heads than we used to, but we know the truth.
We are worth MORE than ever.
Still, the way we look does affect the way that we FEEL.
The days of pampering ourselves feel like a lifetime ago.
We put our family's needs above our own.
We have less and less time to do anything for ourselves.
But we deserve to feel good, to look good.
*** YOU ARE STILL A 10 ***
We spend our time taking care of everyone else, now is the time to take care of OURSELVES.
Aging gracefully isn't about skin care, it's about SELF CARE.
Invest in your HEALTH.
Invest in YOURSELF.
If you agree: I'd love for you to follow my Instagram page right here @TheFoodBabe.
Then tag someone you know who is still a 10!
I'm having so much fun interacting with everyone over on Instagram and would love to see YOU in the comments.
