Hey, this is really cool, and probably old news to most of you out there who watch TV. (I generally don't.)
Dove (the ones who make the soap) has a new line of advertising using old (over 50) non-model women as its spokespeople. And they're naked! And beautiful!

I hear they're also on billboards around the country, including one in Times Square.
This is the second thing I was going to write about in my previous post.
I don't know why exactly, but these women make me really happy. Seeing them, seeing their pictures, seeing their age, seeing their beauty: there is something deeply right with this that I can't quantify.
I'm normally severely allergic to corporate ad campaigns, but I'm so happy with this one I actually bought some Dove soap, just for the principle of the thing.
Be well!
And thanks to the folks at MommyCast.com for introducing me to the Dove Campaign.
Quote for today: When an emotion feels good, we know we’re on the right course. Feelings like joy and love are your internal cheering section. They tell you you’re succeeding at something, you’re on the happy track, and you should keep going the way you’re going.

I like that more honest approach to what we women look like. It is affirming. Thank you for blogging. I have PTSD, depression and DDNOS. It is a long journey into wellness for me.
