Saturday

Nearly there.

One time, I read that you'll have a hard time changing your body until you can learn to love it as it already is.

Right now, in my life, I am loving my fat body.

I know, I know! But it's true. I feel... whole. The odd thing is, this is definitely the most healthy I have been in a long while. I mean, I frickin hiked the Grand Canyon this summer. [The entire thing!] Right now, I can run three miles no problem. It's probably because of all the hiking I did over the summer. So anyways.
I am fat and healthy is what I'm trying to say.

And I'm not just one of those girls whining about being fat when I'm not.
I really got some flab.. and it feels good. I like the softness. I feel comfortable. I even feel beautiful. Sexy, you could say.
So I think it's going to be a lot easier when the time comes [who knows when] to start shedding the extra pounds. I love my body! As Nie said,
"If you love your body, you will feed it right." [Or something real similar to that]

I have this urge to celebrate my body and to take care of it.
...For now, that means eating whatever I want, getting sporadic exercise, and "delighting in my fatness."

Who remembers this?
[one of my absolute FAVORITES]


Thank you, thank you.

ps- One week left of school, tomorrow will be spent at the library studying.
Things for you to read about tomorrow when I have time:
.Christmas Around the World
.The evacuation of my work today due to a bomb threat [not joking]

Best,
karl.

love after love

The time will come when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror,
and each will smile at the other's welcome,
and say
sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger
who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread.
Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you all your life...

Take down the love
letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs,
the desperate notes, peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit.
Feast on your life.

~Derek Walcott
