AT YOUR BEST - Cheral


Tell us why you felt at your best in this moment:

This photo is from my 30th Birthday party. All of my nearest and dearest friends and family were there to celebrate this day with me, which made it so special. I am now 34 approaching 35 in November, but I remember my 30th like it was yesterday. I knew I was not quite where I wanted to be in life, but I knew I had come so far from who I was when I was in my twenties. I can say I was a little reckless. When I turned 30 I felt like a grown woman, no longer careless and wet behind the ears. I had learned so much from all of the beautiful, smart women God had surrounded me with. As I continue on this journey I am still discovering so much about myself and who I am becoming. Let me just tell you that I like what I see.

How do you define beauty:

Beauty is generosity and kindness, when you have these characteristics a light shines from within you that others can't ignore.

How do you define happiness:

Happiness is self awareness and acceptance. Loving yourself from the inside out and enjoying life to the fullest.

I love these features! 30 is definitely the time when I started looking at myself and truly knowing the reflection and loving it. You're right that it's a journey of discovering and becoming and it's beautiful to see how far we've come.

I agree Anon! 30 was a great age because I still felt youthful, but equipped with so much more knowledge and self-awareness.

We're glad you love the feature and we are excited that people are so willing to share!
