harder
and harder to take a good selfie
to post
online,
to show the world
how young
and handsome i still am,
despite
the weight gain
and bald head.
it's tough
finding the right light,
the right turn
of the head,
do i smile, do i look
straight ahead,
do i toss my head back
in a laugh?
will sunglasses and a hat
help?
how do i show the world
how wonderful
i still am?
maybe if i have the ocean
behind me,
or a plate
of food in front of me,
or a dog
in my lap,
it will distract them
from whom i really am.

Just be yourself! But it’s so easy to say…tough to do! It’s taken me many edits to my profile to figure out what to write that reflects the real me.
I read your profile and saw this blog reference so that’s how I’m here. I’m enjoying the tidbits you share!
