This Granny Is A Glam-Ma

Today I acknowledge that I am a “Glam-Ma”. I remind myself that life is too short to shortchange me! I have decided to rock my gray. Miss Clairol is no longer a friend that I care to associate with, and those three-inch heels are a thing of the past and that is perfectly fine! My gams still look good whether they have definition or not! Oh yes this ole gal is a force to be reckoned with!

I do not have to expose parts of me to bring attention to myself because sexy sells. I am much more than that! I have compassion and empathy and I am smart and wise beyond my years. I love me some me! I am loyal and a good friend and I have come to terms with my weaknesses and frailties. I am strong but not intimidating. I do not have anything to prove to anyone but me and I can be convincing!

I can laugh at myself. My entire life is worth living because I have discovered that I really was born on purpose with purpose. I have all my needs met and anything else is just gravy! Sounds a little like bragging, doesn’t it? Well, it is not…not at all. I am just saying what is the truth! And before you get it twisted; I know that I am not perfect. Being perfect is being free from flaws or defects. Well, that is certainly not me. But I love me anyway and I know that everyday I am evolving. I am developing more and more and looking better and better as I focus on the things that really matter. It is all about my character. Character must be developed on the inside. It is a matter of the heart. When I genuinely love me, it frees me in a way that I never dreamed possible to love someone else.

When you see me do not let the gray hair fool you into thinking that I have been put out to pasture. Do not be fooled by what you see on the outside into thinking that I am outdated, or obsolete. There is always something going on in my mind that when I open my mouth it may just cause you to stop and think. When I hug you, it just might cause you to want to linger a while as it is warm and genuinely full of love and understanding. When I call you and you hear my voice on the other end you just might get excited because you know that I am a woman of prayer and that I will stand with you and I will fight for you.

Yes, I am a glamorous grandmother who is clothed with a robe that is righteous. I am clothed with humility, kindness, and patience. Strength and honor are my clothing too. I can walk any runway with confidence because my designer is the Lord!
