Someone
shared this with me...it's not my photo and I didn't write this. But...I
absolutely love what this woman wrote. So well done!
Please
read; it's quite enjoyable and therefore I share.
A while
back, at the entrance of a gym, there was a picture of a very thin and
beautiful woman. The caption was "This summer, do you want to be a mermaid
or a whale?"
The story
goes, a woman (of clothing size unknown) answered the following way:
"Dear
people, whales are always surrounded by friends (dolphins, seals, curious
humans), they are sexually active and raise their children with great
tenderness.
They
entertain like crazy with dolphins and eat lots of prawns. They swim all day
and travel to fantastic places like Patagonia, the Barents Sea or the coral
reefs of Polynesia.
They sing
incredibly well and sometimes even are on cds. They are impressive and dearly
loved animals, which everyone defend and admires.
Mermaids do
not exist.
But if they
existed, they would line up to see a psychologist because of a problem of split
personality: woman or fish?
They would
have no sex life and could not bear children.
Yes, they
would be lovely, but lonely and sad.
And, who
wants a girl that smells like fish by his side?
Without a
doubt, I'd rather be a whale.
At a time
when the media tells us that only thin is beautiful, I prefer to eat ice cream
with my kids, to have dinner with my partner, to eat and drink and have fun
with my friends.
Canye Kane: You need a great big women
We women, we gain weight because we accumulate
so much wisdom and knowledge that there isn't enough space in our heads, and it
spreads all over our bodies.
We are not fat, we are greatly cultivated.
Every time
I see my curves in the mirror, I tell myself: "How amazing am I ?! "
