Have you ever secretly being going through a difficult time in your life and no one else knew? Cried yourself to sleep too many nights to count, cried in your car on your way to work, during work, after work, and a few times in between? Maybe you’ve obsessed over your weight, job, finances, dealing with feelings of abandonment, lack of direction, < insert problem here>! But no one knew the secret insecurities you were struggling with, because you so eloquently hid them? Sound familiar?  Pretty is a Lifestyle is a microcosm of my entire existence! Pretty not always meaning pretty, but how we tend to paint our lives for the world to see. Pretty meaning no matter how unpretty life’s obstacles may make me feel, I get up, I dress up, and I show up. Not because I feel like it all the time, but because I’ve realized that most, if not all of life’s rough patches are temporary, even if it doesn’t feel that way at the moment. Pretty is a lifestyle, because every day I have to make a decision to see the pretty that life has to offer, even in the midst of my most difficult moments, or I can choose to see the unpretty. I choose pretty for the win! How about you?
