Today, I’m celebrating my 47th birthday and the start of a new year; a beautiful gift from God to be born on January 1st. I’m sharing a simple, makeup-free picture of myself, embracing my wrinkles, moles (beauty marks ) as I call them, and every imperfection. In these 47 years, I’ve experienced countless highs and lows, moments of joy, sorrow, and times of challenge. Through it all, I’ve done my best to rise above and keep moving forward, even when it hasn’t been easy. capricornseason
