Dear world,
telling somebody they need to eat more isn’t any more acceptable than telling somebody they need to eat less.

“If you want to succeed in your life, remember this phrase: That past does not equal the future. Because you failed yesterday; or all day today; or a moment ago; or for the last six months; the last sixteen years; or the last fifty years of life, doesn’t mean anything… All that matters is: What are you going to do, right now?”

“You are not to do anything to be happy. In fact you have done too much to become unhappy. If you want to be unhappy, do too much. If you want to be happy, allow things, allow things to be. Rest, relax, and be in a letgo. Let-go is the secret of life. Let-go is the secret of religion. Let-go is the greatest secret. When you are in a let-go many things, millions of things, start happening. They were already happening but you were never aware.”

“The fear, too, is a fear of yourself: a completely dualistic and contradictory fear. On one hand it is a fear that you do not have what it takes to make it, and on the other hand, a possibly greater fear that you do have what it takes, and that by definition you therefore also have a responsibility to do something really big.”

lifebyshannon:

I wasn’t sure if I was going to post this, because I don’t want to give anyone fuel to compare their body to my body, but this is me in a swimsuit, and I am very much unashamed.

My body changed drastically throughout recovery. My boobs are two solid cup sizes larger, my hips are round, my arms jiggle, and my thighs touch everywhere. I see no flaws though. I’m not going to sit here and say that my body’s flaws are beautiful, because I don’t see any flaws. Flaws are a man-made concepts. My body is not any less perfect because I have stretch marks.

Something that is important for everyone to learn is to stop comparing your recovery to another person’s recovery. Maybe someone is weight restored and you still think they look ‘thin,’ whereas your body looks heavier. So what? My body isn’t bony, but I don’t mind if another person’s is. Everyone carries weight differently, everyone feels their best at different weights, the way bodies look is just not a comparable thing.

Love your body because it is your body. Because it allows you to hug people and listen to music and dance and run and smell flowers and pet baby animals. How your body looks is hardly relevant when you think of how your body allows you to feel.
