MISS UNIVERSE 2015

I am dedicating a post to my friend, Nia Sanchez for tonight, she is competing with 87 other women from different countries for the title of Miss Universe 2015. Nia, being one of the crowd's favorites, is representing USA. I've known her for the class, elegance and humility she owns and I'm wishing her the best of luck.

With that being said, I encourage you, my readers to accept your own flaws. Once you do, that's when you'll see your real beauty. Don't settle for being "perfect". This is a word that is SO easy to be given away by people who can't think of anything but. You've got to have a word. Choose it, own it, live it. You can do it weekly. Set a day where you figure out a goal that needs to be accomplished and set the word for it.

My DIY Mondays are dedicated to self-empowerment. After all, it's the best Do-it-yourself task we could ever do. I choose the word, "ELEGANT" for this week with Miss Nia's portrayal in mind and heart. She had set a very good example and I am truly proud of her.

NBC features the Miss Universe Pageant LIVE tonight in Miami. (This morning in Asia).
