Dear Fair Mirror,
Earlier tonight, after reconciling with my mother from a heated fight and a warm shower, I looked at you and realised how far I've come. Thirty days ago, I remember that I looked at you with contempt. You showed me the face and features of a person whom I could barely love, or even recognise. Yet this month has taught me many things that I know, but never wanted to face.
Writing and sticking to this 30 Day Letter Challenge as honestly as I could has been therapeutic, helping me put hard questions in perspective. It really was a challenge as it made me dig deep and let the words flow out of me. Dear reader, if you are reading this, please go start this for yourself. You might think that it's already too late but it never is, go on and do yourself this one favour and you won't regret it.
Apart from my emotional and spiritual reflections, I have also deliberated that it is time for a new hairstyle. I looked at myself for an hour earlier, thinking of how I should wear my hair. What I saw shocked myself. Usually, I hated how I looked as I said in the first paragraph. I always hated my dark, brown eyes, my tan skin, my black eyebrows, and my teeth.
I guess growing emotionally and spiritually also gave me acceptance and helped me love not only what's on the inside but on the outside as well. It's a nice feeling and I'm glad I feel this way now. I hope that those of you readers who hate yourself learn and grow to love yourselves.
Thanks for sticking with me through my letter challenge guys, I'll see you next time. Oh and by the way, I'm self publishing my novel, Untitled Won, this Winter so be sure to keep your eyes out for that. See you. :)
Xoxo,
Tan Eugene.
