That’s a beautiful printable, Claudya. I have fond memories of my Mom and I desperately looking for a large oval mirror. We never found one we liked. Sigh.

Great message!

nice. I just might print it and hang it in the middle school bathroom.

Thanks for the reminder! I work out and when I see positive results, I STILL pick and think, “I wish this could be better…” Sigh.

So true!! If I study my reflection, there is always something to dislike. I try to avoid doing that. If I catch myself, I then lecture myself “hey, you were supposed to be checking for stuff stuck in your teeth, goofy!”

Good point. Perhaps I’ll avoid mirrors altogether!

“…deep desire to piss myself off…” see we do share common thoughts. The mirrors don’t bother me much (it’s the cameras). Most of them are not long enough to check for matching socks. Sometimes I see my dad in the mirror which brings a weird but warm feeling. I suggest a slight change to your wording “Mirrors are not for picking your nose or yourself apart.” Good reflective post.

You are not alone and your thoughts a right on…“Mirrors are not for picking yourself apart.”

Awesome! I love it! Makes me think of how I literally covered my bathroom mirror with a towel for over a month after I had my son. I know…crazy. I just couldn’t handle it. If I could just focus on what I like about my body and the joy I feel from what I can do with it, then I think my “flaws” would feel smaller.
Best,
