Be Yourself, Everyone Else is Taken

Greetings Glitter Crew!

I had a deep thought while gathering these gorgeous peonies from my garden. There is a dark pink flower in the bunch that I almost tossed because it was different and fading.

My hubby asked, “Why would you do that, you like unique?”

It’s 100% true! I love to embrace what’s different in this world. I started thinking about this dark pink bloom. Most petals have fallen, it’s almost fading, but it’s still fighting.

It’s still holding on and deserves to be celebrated. Acknowledged for its perseverance. Rewarded for its boldness to stand out in a crowd with its beautiful rich color.

My message for someone who needs it today…

When you feel like the dark pink peony, that’s seen better days, but still fighting to hold it’s place in an ocean of light pinks…straighten yourself out, stand tall, and take center stage.

Ignore the noise of social media. Stop comparing yourself to everyone’s filtered feed. Love and celebrate what makes you so YOU-nique.

YOU my dear is all that matters!

Be yourself, everyone else is taken!

XOXO to all the dark peonies that dare to be different and save this world from monotony and boredom!
