DARN I LEFT OUT A PIECE
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Hi John! DARN I LEFT OUT A PIECE In the last letter I just send I asked if you ask yourself if you're fat. For some reason I missed a "disclaimer" at the bottom of my letter that didn't get copy-pasted. It's super important. Here it is: In no way do I say being fat or overweight is bad or wrong. I am only expressing my own anxiety over being fat or overweight because I was criticized in this way when I was a kid. Fat on me became bad in my mind. Up to that point I was unselfconscious of my body, particularly my gut or belly. After that point I obsessed about it. Not because my universal value is that fat is bad, but that for me to have a gut would invite criticism, ridicule, and rejection. I've had to learn how to be accepting of myself, my body as it is, and love everything about myself, including my gut. And, as the previous letter suggests, this self-loathing applied to so many areas of my life. This also applied to me loving and appreciating all body types, all spiritualities, all intelligences, all talents, all people, etcetera etcetera etcetera. You get my meaning. |
