I probably made one of the most random New Year's resolutions... no selfies in 2017.
At the end of 2016, I looked back at my posts and I was bored. Yes, bored. By my own face. I didn't feel like I had captured my year. What was the point of seeing myself at different angles a million times?
When I'm feeling good & looking good, it feels as if I need to take a selfie. Why not? I'm feeling myself and I want everyone else to also. But then there's that entire issue of likes and not enough and not being secure enough with myself to let other people take a picture of me. Looked at my IG top nine and I just did not agree. Then I realized this entire thing I was doing was dumb af LOL. This doesn't matter. I don't have to post a top nine and I should really like what I'm posting. Everyone else's opinion doesn't matter.
Then it hit me: no selfies in 2017. There’s a lot more to life than my own face, so why not turn the camera the other way around?
That's what I'm doing. I'm capturing the world around me and I'm noticing all the magic & beauty that's been staring me in the face but I wasn't paying attention. And guess what? I can still look good & feel good while doing it. So no front-facing full face camera shots this year. #NoSelfies2017
