I just finished my Zumba workout! I feel as if I could go run a mile and then Zumba again. Not only did working out inspire this title for my blog post but also the immense amount of clothes shopping I have been doing lately. :)
Since I am going on a mission, to Brazil (wha wha), I get to buy myself all new blouses and skirts. (That's the rule, right...hehe). However, one would think buying new clothes is so simple. I mean, a girl walks into the store and sees twenty different things she likes, tries them on, and they all fit perfectly! Well, this is wrong! Clothes shopping is hard for many reasons. One factor is size and another factor is modesty. You can find one or another but it seems to me that it's a rarity to find both these days.
I recently have lost 30 pounds and trust me, I feel amazing! However sometimes, it still depresses me to walk into a store and not find one thing that fits me correctly. Department stores always have the cutest clothing and it looks good on the rack but when I am wearing it, it definetly does not! So, when I do find that perfect gem of clothing I treasure it, take care of it, and wear it the best way I can.
It saddens me to see so much immodesty these days. It's difficult for girls who want to dress modestly and yet, there are tank tops, halters, low cut shirts everywhere. I am one who believes that a girl says a lot about who she is by the way she presents herself. This includes the ways she dresses. Dressing modestly shows self respect. I don't want to offend anyone if your reading this, I am just simply stating my opinion. So please, keep reading...
I hope that I can be an example to the young girls out in the world. I hope that they will choose to be modest and love the skin they are in by giving themselves the respect they deserve. We are all daughters of God and we are all unique. I love you!
Okay, it's time for American Idol. :)
Love, Lindsey
