Was that really me?
I peer into life’s mirror and like what I see.
Ah, Sixteen!

Short and sweet. Really! I’m glad I can look in the mirror and NOT see the girl at 16 but a much better person now. 🙂 Have a great week!

Yes, it seems like an entirely different person. I enjoy the way you expressed this. So succint, so true.

At 16…I didn’t like what I saw (too short, nose to big, too many pimples) Oh to have my 16 year old face and body back!

I relate to this one because 16 was a wonderful time for me. I was lucky enough not to have difficult teenage years, and I look back on them fondly.

I peer in the mirror and wish I had that 16 year old face again, but still have the experience that comes with old age!!

Funny how I always thought I was too fat or too ugly and now I look back and see how beautiful I was back then. Darn that mirror! :)~Ames

Beautiful. I wish we could all see ourselves clearly in the mirror of our lives.
I think, as a whole, most of us are just too hard on ourselves!
Hope your holiday season is filled with merry and bright.
