I recently came across this quote, and it really stood out to me. When I read it I thought to myself: this is how I want the world to see me. I want to be viewed as someone who leaves the world a little brighter, and who leaves an impression on everyone she meets. I want every aspect of myself and my life to sparkle.
I want my appearance to sparkle. When I leave a room, I still want people to be talking about how nice I always look. Even if that's light years from the truth, I strive to exude a confidence that makes people believe it. I want to slap a smile on my far-from-perfectly made up face, stand up straight in the outfit that is really just okay, and make everyone believe that I look put together even though I woke up
I want my passion to sparkle. When I speak I want everyone to know exactly where I stand in my beliefs. I want my actions to be done with my whole heart, in a way that leaves no one doubting how passionate I am about my career, my beliefs, and my life. And most importantly, I want my words to ignite a passion in others, and to inspire them in their beliefs and their choices.
Lastly, I want my personality to sparkle. I want every place I leave to be a little brighter because I was there. I try everyday to be kinder, happier, and better than I was the day before. I want to strive every day to be a better person than I was yesterday, and to sparkle a little brighter than I ever have before.
And remember...
I really, really love this post. I never thought much about the first facet {I'm far from a fashionista haha} but the second and third are things I think about and strive for all the time. I don't know about how well you do in everyday life, but I love reading your blog whenever you post so I'd say you've definitely left some sparkle on my corner of the blogosphere! :)
