self portraits that I love
I have been dreaming of getting one printed super large to hang in our house.
Do you know what’s been holding me back? Vanity. And the idea that I shouldn’t openly appreciate myself. That by having this picture of me is somehow selfish and I should enjoy it in private.
But I’ve done that for too long, and all it does is make me feel small and insignificant. And that is not what I dream of for my life. I long to have connection to self and with others, in a meaningful way, and that means I have to show up. I have to be seen. I have to be who I am.
