What Is Your Mosaic? Part 3

What makes you, you? 🤔

A mosaic is defined as an image produced by arranging pieces together -- the small pieces that create you. 🧩

At age 50, this is mine...

I always put my phone away to watch movies because filmmaker @skyvirker helped me learn how to intentionally watch, & feel films. 📱🎥

I now paint my nails in neutral tones because my makeup guru sister Jasmine says it shaves 10 years off. I also stopped buying fashion magazines years ago. ❌

I walk a lot -- beautiful walking partners and our puppy Johnny just make life better. 🐕‍🦺

I have a simple skin/hair care routine. My influencer sister Jacqui / @sarishabeauty showed me how less is more. And my hairdresser @frizzzy10 taught me hair must be healthy. 💇🏻‍♀️ Plus, with the magic of micro blading by @inneta0829 at @visageuppercanada , I no longer need short bangs. 🙎🏻‍♀️

I talk. About love, parenting, & life. My friend @vicky_gill_gonzalez & her family taught me that when we share, we learn. My sister Lena taught me this too. 💕

I (finally) cherish being brown, knowing part of my heart is always in India. 🇮🇳 A big family trip before quarantine taught me that. ✈️ And a slew of amazing friends.

I assign myself & others homework -- things to work on -- @miavirk has shown me, and my lovely in laws, the young can lead the old. ☝🏽

I look at the big picture, and try not to freak out -- because our son has taught me a problem isn’t a problem until it is a problem (even when it’s a bad report card). 📝

I rely on a few good people -- my brother in law Roger showed me that your team never leaves you, growing with each new member. 🙏🏽 My best friend ingrained in me one person cannot be your everything.☝🏽

I help people because my Mom, Dad, sisters, & brother have picked me up, many times over, when I most needed it. 🙏🏽

I worry (a little) less because my husband has shown me not only what strength looks like, but how wrong judgement is. 💪🏽

We change, we grow, we shine! 💫

We are the living memory of every person that has ever mattered to us. And can now be part of the mosaic of those around us. 🌍
