tatauu22's Journal, 01 Oct 19

I found this by Steph Gaudreau. We can do this.

You were put on this earth to do something bigger than whittle your body down, down, down into a perfect but fleeting shape, like a woodcarver working, working, working with head bowed to the world.
Put another way, the most important thing you have to offer this plane of existence is not a perfect body. In fact, it's the LEAST important thing you have to offer.
And when I say "do something bigger", I don’t mean everyone will become a president or an elite athlete or the leader of a global non-profit. Not everything bigger you can have to offer is an occupation, by the way. Watch out for that productivity = self-worth pitfall.
But what I do mean is your ability to...
• live more fully
• laugh more loudly
• stand up for what’s important to you more fervently
• love more openly
• dance more ridiculously
• feel more deeply
• nurture yourself more freely, and
• use your gifts more courageously.
In a world where hating yourself and your body is expected, keeping yourself engaged with these bigger things, doing the things that nourish your body, mind, and spirit because you want to thrive is seen as counterculture at best, insane at worst.
You are inherently, innately powerful.
You are here for more, to live into your life more fully, to expand and push into the edges.

Tatauu...do you mind if I repost in my journal? I would like it to save this and FS will have your post disappear in a few days from the thread.

I can do all of those things better and with a sweet bod. I get the message though. Be happy no matter what. I have that down.

Same thought, Diablo! I agree with the message and can do those things more easily as I'm meeting my goals. 💕
