I have one. She wears clothes with ease, looking cool and stylish. Her make up is always flawless and perfect. And her hair looks like (okay, I am ageing myself here...) a Breck Girl ad.
And although I don't see her very often, I could be grateful because who wants to feel like a short, stumpy toad? But she is so nice and kind and friendly, it is hard not to like her.
So what can we do about this feeling in a goddess' presence?
I don't experience envy, but admiration. That is, in my humble opinion, a great step.
I'm sure she has bad days, her own insecurities and a myriad of unique problems. I do not want to change places with her. But admittingly, there are some things I can do to make myself feel better about short, pale, ageing me.
Wanting to be tall isn't possible, but standing tall and straight is important. Shoulders back, head high, and walking with ease makes one feel graceful and taller.
Wearing clean pressed clothes that flatter our bodies, in colors that suit our complexions and hair color are another step.
And having clean, stylish hair that is healthy and current, as well as good simple makeup without following the trends is a huge help.
Good shoes that are well maintained, finished nails on hands AND feet and simple jewelry makes a person feel polished and finished.
And of course, a pleasant face, a sweet smile and a gracious heart will always make one feel like a queen.
I am so glad I am friends with this lovely woman. She has also impacted me to be a better human, as she is a generous spirit and is making a difference in lives.
Could I be talking about you? Maybe.
Look at yourself and see if this fits. If not, it might be worth considering adopting these positive traits to cause others to say the same things about you.
Until next month, I remain,
Stylistically yours,
Sooz
