Hi all and welcome to my little spot in South Africa. A bit about me - I'm a single mom of two naughty but gorgeous teenage children who keep me active well after dark (trying to avoid the obstacles they leave on the floor all over the house :o) Life has thrown me a few interesting curves and angles and I'm still trying to make head or tale (yes, tale!) of which direction I'm meant to be going in. I am a poet and writer by nature and I dabble in a bit of photography on the side. Thanks for stopping by and visiting my home at Renderosity. Hugs all!
BIO
I am a South African single mom of two mischievous children who loves life and thinks that having a positive attitude and love are the best gifts you can give the universe. If there is a challenge, bring it on. If you have a problem to solve, I am here. If you need a shoulder to soak, I wear soft padded jackets. lol I am a full time employee who dabbles a bit in poetry, writing short stories and loves to mess around with Terragen and my camera. To all who dropped in to see who I am - welcome and thanks for stopping by.. Hugs to you all.
UPDATE:
Teens NO MORE!!! Now a naughty grandmother who leads her grandson astray on a regular basis :D

nice trick

Get a smaller mirror! Well, not really - what does inanimate glass know? But no matter how slim, most women won't like their reflected image - fact. However, the average male looks in mirror and sees a person of character, possibly even handsome in a certain light. Thoroughly deluded most guys push on. It's not fair - another fact. -- Dick

I know that feeling. I despise mirrors...

I enjoyed the read, so nicely formed and a meaning everyone can relate to in many aspects. Me, I prefer funhouse mirrors. ;o)

Must admit, my mirror in the bathroom, skulks whenever I get near it, lately! Hahaha! Lovely work Sue. Excellent! Steve :o)

And how ugly are mirrors that are in clothing shops! With that flourecent light?! Excellent discriptions! But what woman is happy with her body? By fault of the media!

This is temporary. Look through the glass. You are beautiful.

Mirrors lie. They only tell the truth when they are attached to the side of a vehicle. You better trust them, then. Otherwise they only fill your scope with dither unless you happen to love yourself unconditionally -- which happens to be a human rarity. I agree with drace68 -- get a very small mirror that only shows your eyes -- the important part.

LoL. thanks for all the suggestions and comments. I find if I forget to clean the mirror, it gets a layer of dust that softens the bulk and the wrinkles too. Quite a nifty use of dust... Have a great day all.

I know the feeling and you have expressed it so well here!! Excellent!!

Remember that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. :)

Hey! I just found a new way to alter the image in the mirror and it's not called a diet. I found glass paint and have painted a mural over the mirror, so even though I get a distorted image of myself, it is still a work of art. lol. I am getting to love myself again but my self image took a hard knock after the divorce. It takes time. Hugs to all!

This is an AWESOME poem........ wow.... expresses the feeling so well. The urge to accept yourself and feel pretty, and then the harsh reality the mirror deals. Great job!

WOW! I laughed my head off reading that! How true it is! Indeed, oru worst critic is the mirror and mine is merciless. Here's to all the women on a diet or jogging, or doing fitness or whatever. Let's stick together, read this poem, have a laugh and get very slim soon!
