Real Beauty

Last week, Daniel asked me when my post pregnancy tummy would be flat again. Ouch! I would also love to know, since getting dressed in the mornings is a huge challenge at the moment. I do not fit into my normal winter wardrobe yet and all my maternity clothes are too big and too summery. It is a first world pain, I know, to complain with a cupboard full of clothes, but sometimes the self-image does not want to listen to reason. 

Maybe that is why I find the new Dove ad so inspiring. It went viral after being posted the first time in April 2013 and is now one of the most viewed online video ads ever. I do not want to give away the plot. Watch it. It makes a powerful point.
