Because I finally look at myself without judgement. I look in the mirror and understand deeply and profoundly why I look the way I do and it fills me with joy.
I am looking through all the pictures from childhood until now. From my nose, chin dimple, thick eyebrows, long face and forehead that my parents tried to hide.... and I can accept it all now, because it is a testament to my roots.
And I am discovering beautiful things about my family. They are of the Bahai faith. They are very humble.
