i was flipping though instyle magazine today and came across this quote from sheryl crow. it was so inspiring, i thought i had to share it with everyone! here’s what she said:
LOVE YOURSELF. “i used to take my body for granted, but i have a stronger sense of my own feminine power and sensuality now! [crow is a breast-cancer survivor]. the sexiest thing to me is knowing and embracing who you are. not changing yourself to look younger but honoring every stage of life and the wisdom that goes with it. the stuff that stressed me out in my 30s i feel liberated from in my 40s. with that comes a sense of joy and a youthfulness that’s real, not manufactured.”
i thought that was just so empowering and enlightening! i loved every word of what she said. it’s something that i’ve always believed in, but never really found the right words to say it. she did it perfectly! power to you, sheryl! i’m totally inspired!!

She’s a strong person. I wonder what her feelings are about getting work done.
“the sexiest thing to me is knowing and embracing yourself”
That is so right! There is nothing sexier than someone who embraces who they are.

it really is such a sexy attitude.
Completely agree! I’ve always owned what I do, what I wear, and the choice I make without worrying about anyone elses opinion but my own. At the end of the day, you’re the one responsible for your happiness. No one else!
BTW: Your blog is great, thanks for stopping by mine.
Love Love,
