Mirror, Mirror on the Wall

Today I have the honor of writing on Shannon Ethridge's Sexually Confident Wife Blog! 

Here's a little peek...

When I look in the mirror, I always lean in for a close-up. I am  discontent with the distance between me and that piece of glass. I want  to see details of my skin, please! Every pore. Blemish. Stray hair. 

The closer I get to the mirror, the more clearly I can hear its lies.
Look at those eyebrows…so dark and bushy. What about those little  hairs on your chin…how disgusting. And those wrinkles under your eyes…  your skin is getting old. And don’t forget those little red dots on your  face… blemishes are so ugly. 

Slowly, I begin to pick at every nook and cranny of my skin.  Inevitably, my five minutes in the bathroom to simply wash my face and  brush my teeth turns into fifteen minutes of surgery on my skin!  My  refreshing nightly ritual is easily ruined as I allow the mirror to  speak negativity into my life. As a result, all I want to do is jump  into bed for fear that someone might see my embarrassing home facial  job, my poor attempt to fix the flaws.
