I am now on my 4th Day of the 30-Day Blog Challenge and today’s blogging prompt is to share about a recent photo of myself. I’ll be sharing to you photos of the first quarter of the year 2020.

January 2020

This photo was taken by a fellow blogger Mike Baños while covering the Art Tents event at Centrio Ayala Mall last January 17, 2020.

February 2020

I had the opportunity to be one of the selected participants of the American English Training of Trainers at Kong Hua School in Cagayan de Oro City. I will share my experience on this on a separate blog post.

March 2020

Last March 10, we had our class picture in school and teachers were also required to have solo shots. While the photographer was taking my photo, I was reminded that I needed to have a 2×2 ID picture for an insurance document that I have to submit the next day. Thus, I asked the photographer to print one for me. Right after, he sent me the photos and I was so happy because he offered it for free.

Sharing and writing about my recent photos was a bit challenging. Probably because I am bit older now and I am afraid about my flaws; including my chubby cheeks. However, I don’t think I can hide my flaws as they are my reality. My flaws are actually what makes me unique to others.

Whenever I look at the mirror and I am not happy with what I see, I always remind myself that I am fearfully and wonderfully made by God. I am beautiful and I am unique.

Finally, when your recent photo reminds you of your flaws, embrace it. You are not perfect but you are beautiful and unique.
