Our scars are a gift of love. ? How we feel in our bodies is not just about a shape or form. It is about how we carry our shape and form in the world. We, especially women, have this idea that our bodies have to be perfect and defined by standards that are crafted by media from a very limited range of models, and even those are most of the time artificial and fake. Many of us have scars to show, some are more obvious and on the outside, impregnated in our skin, some are even deeper, impregnated in our souls, from the many experiences, hurts, losses, trials, connections, outbreaks that we have. We need to stop being ashamed of our scars, no matter how deep they are. We are always given the choice, through our faith and with God always on our side, to transform all our scars into rebirths. Just like a flower blooms only from a little bud, just like a rose has thorns that appear first, in the same manner, our bodies have a story to tell. Our story. What makes us special is not fitting in a certain standard and rules, it’s our unique story and the way we carry, treasure and grow our story in front of the world. We do not have to be perfect for anybody else, but ourselves. Our journey is one of transformation, of change, and of growth through this life. God’s message for us is to always believe and continue to grow. In faith, in love, in strength. “If God is with for, who is against us?”. This painting, just like most of my paintings, is dedicated to those who believe in their stories and who allow it to be written on their skin with pride and joy. Is dedicated to those who are willing to take their scars and transform them into blooming gifts, gifts of love and faith and joy for the life that we are given. This painting is dedicated to you and me.
