Head to Toe

What do you do when the past comes knocking and I don't just mean an ex. I'm talking more about the moment when your entire life catches up to you. That day that you face the reflection in the mirror. I've heard many times when people gain a large amount of weight that they somehow stop seeing what's staring back at them. For some reason we only look neck high and if that's too thick then just from the bottom of the lip and above. When life gets complicated we tend to start looking at only the good parts, let's make them pretty. Extra gloss, a few more strokes of mascara and I can always make my hair pretty, but dressing up the few good attributes does not correct the entire picture and when you find your self in front of the mirror that forces you to look from head to toe you are left with one of two choices; break the glass and continue to live broken or face the fact that you don't like what's looking back. It's time to change from head to toe, inside and out so that I love who I'm looking at.
