See The Good

---

Young me…

Entered a modeling contest…

Teen Magazine…Kodak 110 point and shoot…green velour jumpsuit…standing under a walnut tree…thought the photos were dapper…clear winners for sure…

But of course they weren’t…teenage me was not a model…too short…too this…too that…but looking at those photos…she felt…like a model…

This husband of mine not a photo taker…surprised his lovely wife on occasion…with a…hey pose here…I’ll take a picture…

More than appalled at the results…those jeans buffoonishly baggy…the side profile…such a family resemblance…and that tank top…where’s Jane Russell when you need her…

And so it is…in life…sometimes…we forget to see the good…that crazy cat lady t-shirt…lovingly made by a friend…the adoring look someone gets…from her furry BFF…

And saggy or not…if you look at the…face…the angle…the lighting…there’s a glimpse of that teenage model wannabe…still there…for the world to see…

And that’s good enough…for modelicious…old gal me…
​
And that husband of mine…agrees…
