As I went to the mall, I was angry and confused among the hundreds of dresses around me. None of them was my size, none of them would fit me, and ultimately, what kind of dress did I really want?
In my head the same old song was playing, saying: "x person would like this dress, because is sexy; uhm, I am not sure about this dress, maybe I should ask someone advice".
Again, I was making the mistake of letting others decide for me. So I stood against the wall of the "others", I looked straight inside my soul and I asked myself: "what does me like?"
The answer was so simple that it almost shocked me.
Me likes simplicity, elegance, light. I was looking for a dress that wasn't sexy, but rather feminine, that would bring that part of me, that newborn woman, to finally show up materially, through textile.
When I saw this dress I thought it reminded me of a beautiful ancient Greece dress, it reminded me of a goddess, of a light, powerful being, the one I am finally turning into.
So I bought it and I wore it tonight for my little birthday party.
I was so happy in myself, so comfortable in my sensuality and elegance, with my cheeks covered in golden powder and my red lips.
I received so much love.
I am grateful.
The discovery of the self is the most amazing, beautiful journey.
