New Year - IMPROVED YOU

I was thinking over the holiday break about all of the commercials that say - New Year, New You and I realized that the message to us should instead be - New Year - IMPROVED YOU. None of us can become a "new" person. We are are who we are, right? If we believe that we are made in God's image - we should only want to improve ourselves instead of totally change. I guess I see so many people struggling to become someone they are not. Living a life of wanting to be like someone else can really tear a self esteem apart. That is why I LOVED the quote from the movie Narnia (from the character Luci) - "You should grow up to be just like YOU" -

So, what is so FAB about New Years - we get the opportunity to re-energize and make a plan to grow up to be just like ourselves (with a few improvements)!

Happy "Fabulous" 2011!
