The Body Beautiful

When i hear people speak negatively of the body i am very saddened. I believe if we could only see truly what the body shows we would see the miracle , awe and evolution of our human form. The next time you look at the body, yours or someone Else's take the time and see the marking's of a life lived. Look at each scar as telling the tale of survival each stretch mark a story of success in weight loss over gain, each dimple as an abundant spirit, each callous as the marking's of a hard laborer, and each mole as a kiss from the sun. See each wrinkle of the brow as a concerned friend. View each crease in the corner of the mouth with compassion as someone who may have lead a very sad life. See each nail bed bitten down to the quick as a person who may need your compassion, understanding and support to help them see life is not falling in on them. See each gray hair as the making of a wise woman or man. Today be in your body embrace it's beauty and it's perfect ness just as it is. Revel in the way your muscles move when you walk, feel the flex of your calf as you take a step. Feel your chest rise and fall as you breathe. feel, really feel the can, pen, glass, mug that you hold, feel the weight as your body responds to hold it. Feel the texture of the food you eat, feel your tongue as the food slides across it feel your salivary glands as the fill up in anticipation of what is to come. Feel life in the body beautiful from the top of your head gray hair, blond, black, blue or dyed, right down to the tip of your toes whither with one toe or ten.
