Chapter 57 : Your Beautiful Reflection



"Your Face Is the Result of Thousands of People Who Loved Each Other". This is a beautiful quote that I came across today and it made me think widely. 


The beauty we see when we look in the mirror isn’t just about what’s on the surface. It’s about the generations of love and connection that brought us here. The quote, “Your face is the result of thousands of people who loved each other,” reminds us that each of us is a product of those who lived, laughed, and loved before us. Our faces, our personalities, even our quirks and habits, these are all part of the love that existed in the lives of our ancestors.


When we understand this, our sense of beauty becomes deeper. We realize that we’re not alone; we’re part of a long line of people whose love and hopes flow through us. Each smile or trait we see in ourselves is a link to the past, a little piece of the dreams our family held. We might have a parent’s gentle nature or a grandparent’s laugh, or we may love music because an ancestor long ago played a similar tune. We’re here because of their courage, dreams, and love.


This awareness changes how we see ourselves. Our flaws stop being things we want to hide; instead, they become reminders of our uniqueness. Our lives hold parts of people we may never have known, but who are with us, shaping us. Recognizing this gives us a sense of pride and belonging. We stop chasing an idea of beauty defined by others and learn to embrace our own, knowing it’s part of something bigger and more meaningful.


In this way, each of us carries a quiet, beautiful legacy. When we treat ourselves with love and kindness, it’s a way of honoring those who came before. Every day, as we live our lives and make our own choices, we continue the story of those who loved us into being. So, when we look in the mirror, let’s take a moment to appreciate not just our reflection, but the love that’s part of us, and remember: we are beautifully, meaningfully connected to those who came before.


You are molded by generations of love, so when you look in the mirror, see yourself as a beautiful reflection of all who came before you.

Chapter 1: Embracing Self Awareness

Let me begin my first blog with a quote, " Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom"- Aristotle I am Alena, I am a normal girl with ordinary talents. If that is the way I introduce myself, what makes me different and what makes me unique?  Most of the people including myself, become insecure and shy away from challenges life has in store because of not being self-aware of their potential. Self awareness plays a major role in personal growth and well being of a person. We need to understand and keep track of our strengths and weaknesses. Our strength could end up turning into our weakness and our weakness could end up being our strength later. An example from my life: In school, I had a hard time making friends which I considered as a flaw, In college I don't find that as an issue which ends up being my strength. I remember starting a personal diary to jot down my emotions and instead of writing what I truly felt, I wrote as if somebody would read it. That is not th...

Book review - Red Verses.

This is a personal book review of Red Verses by Pearlina Gracelyn. Pearlina is my best friend, but did I truly know how deep her thoughts ran? No. While reading this book, it felt as if I was not just turning the pages but unveiling the chapters of her life. It’s raw, real, and straight from her heart, something you can feel with every word. The words are beautifully yet simply crafted, resonating deeply with the reader. This is not just a collection of poems but an outpouring of emotions printed onto paper. I could sense how much courage and vulnerability it must have taken for her to write these pieces, and that makes the book even more profound. I don’t know if it was mere coincidence, but I truly loved how the poem "My Wedding Day" ended with the verse "As husband and wife." That single line, placed on a separate page, made it so much more impactful. The simplicity of dedicating one page to such a significant line brought out the true essence of the poem’s subje...
