“Your
body isn’t a thing to be looked at and judged against some standard of
perfection that doesn’t even really exist. It’s vessel that take you through
life, allowin’ you to experience all the beautiful things life has to offer.
Food. Sex. Sunsets. Music. Hugs. Laughter. A healthy body is a gift. Don’t take
it for granted. Don’t treat it like some cheap one night stand. Treat it like
the love of your life. Treat it with respect and tenderness, but most of all,
with gratitude.”
