the purple hat


Beautiful women


Age 3: she looks at herself and sees a Queen


Age 8: she looks at herself and sees cinderella


Age 15: she looks at herself and see ugly sister (mom, i cant go to school looking like this!)


Age 20: she looks at herself and sees "too fat/too thin, too short/too tall, too straight/too curly" but decides she's going out anyway


Age 30: she looks at herself and sees "too fat/too thin, too short/too tall, too straight/too curly but decides she doesnt have time to fix it so she's going out anyway


Age 50: she looks at herself ans sees "Who she really is" and goes wherever she wants to go


Age 60: she looks at herself and reminds herself of all the people who cant eve see themselves in the mirror anymore


Age 70: she looks at herself & sees wisdom, laughter and ability, goes out and enjoys life


Age 80: doesnt bother to look. just puts on a purple hat and goes out to have fun with the world


Maybe we should all grab that purple hat earlier~!

I thought this was cute, and I like the message!

Liefhe alle ten spijte van duivel... A tes souhaits... A tes amours... Qu ils restent. J'ai t'adore. Je t'aime.

I really enjoyed this!!  There is lots you could do with this poem... I think that you could take out the ":'s" with the timeline format, and actually make it into lines... I really liked the storyline.  Very creative!

Oh wow, Andrea! What an amazing poem. It's so full of positive feelings instead of constant crappiness we read constantly. it's unreal. Really mindblowing stuff.  

I love it. Thanks for writing and sharing it.

Why does Sea World have a seafood restaurant? I'm halfway through my fish burger and I realize, Oh my gosh....I could be eating a slow learner.
