Small Decisions

One of the greatest things I ever did for myself, was realize that with or without self-hate, I was still going to have my body. ⁣ ⁣ Let me explain:⁣ ⁣ If I hated my body, I would still have my body.⁣ If I loved my body, I would still have my body. ⁣ ⁣ BUT ⁣ ⁣ I could let myself HATE my body all of my life, and it wouldn’t change ANYTHING. ⁣ ⁣

I could let myself lean into the idea that maybe I could LOVE my body, and it would change EVERYTHING. ⁣ ⁣ And in fact, it did. ⁣ ⁣ The size & shape of my body is THE least interesting thing about me. ⁣ You can look at me and assume all you want - my health, my relationship status, my wealth, etc etc. ⁣ ⁣ But without even opening my mouth, I’ve worked VERY hard to be able to communicate one thing: ⁣ ⁣ LOVE - for myself & others. ⁣ ⁣ My life, my body & my spirit are rooted in love rather than hate — sealed by one, small decision to give a bit of self-love (grace, mercy, kindness) a try.⁣ ⁣ One tiny moment of grace lead to years of opportunities, friendships, stories & joy that would have never been possible for me within the confines of self-hate. ⁣ ⁣ One small decision changed absolutely everything. ⁣ ⁣ Your one small decision could change everything. ⁣ 💗
