The Battle for My Face

It all started with Lent and Ash Wednesday Service at Hollywood Pres

Me:  I am going to give up bread for Lent (because it is all about "Keeping Up Appearances" and really I just want an excuse to get skinnier)
God:  I want you to give up make-up.
Me:   That is insane (cue the 10 second principal.  You know the one that had us abandon my "dream life" in Williamsburg and move my entire life to Bruxelles, Belgium).

But I am a settler.
I settled for SIU and God gave me TIU.
I settled for Dave and God gave me Jon.
I settled for America and God gave me Europe.
I settled for being defined by external beauty that our messed up society deems as everything and God gave me....
