Hats off to Michelle Cantrell, owner of VenusVision.com a Blog that promotes self-acceptance among women. Michelle wrote to the Editors of Glamour to let them know what it means to have an image of a woman that is authentic and represents so many of the women in society.
If you are as inspired as I am, write your own letter to the Editors of Glamour to let them know how much we appreciate their desire to reach out to all women.
The best gift we can give to ourselves is to be ourselves and the best gift others, especially advertisers and members of the media, can give us, is to recognize that fact.
Thank you Michelle for having the courage to bring self acceptance out in the open and thank you Glamour Magazine for having the courage to go outside the boundaries society places upon women.
Now, I am off to go and re-new my subscription to Glamour Magazine! More as it happens! Jodell
