When I looked up stained glass
detail on-line, I love the fact that churches used these windows to tell the
story of the bible visually for those who could not read. These vividly colored
depictions really grab our attention and then when the sun shines through, it
makes the reflection seem almost magical as it casts the colors across the
church inside.
In my article I use stained glass
as a simile for life. Think of how we reflect upon life, how our beliefs and
perceptions make us and whether we embrace who we are by being comfortable in
our skin or if we deny our story and how this affects our wellbeing. When we
live our story, we embrace our beauty for all that it is meant to be. We learn
from our pasts and we allow our lessons to take hold and help us shape a future
full of purposeful living. We are, in essence, beautifully blemished. This is
what it is to be human; I stand proud knowing all of this. I accept me for who
I am and for where I’ve come from and for all of the things that I’ve
encountered and overcome. Do you accept
you in all of your blemished glory? I want you to stand proud too!
