here are some things i think about and that i would like to share.....
1) why r we all in competition all of the time with those around us and with ourselves? are we not all winners already? i mean come on! we are ALL the sperm who won the race arent we? therefore the competition is over...and we are supposed to enjoy the prize...LIFE!
2) dont ever wish that u were someone else...for if u were someone else then u wouldnt know the people who u love....and admit it...someone deep down...u have grown fond of urself!
3) food should not be our life.....food is merely something we need in order to survive and to do activities that are truely what life is all about!...it's like wearing a coat in the winter time...u put it on for protection from the cold while u go outside and have fun! u dont dwell on the coat...u just accept that u need it and move on
4) i totally wanna get out of my rut and never get into one again.....ruts are depressing because nothing new and exciting ever happens...and u only get 1 life! USE IT!
5) weight is just a number...at ur funeral they arent going to talk about how much u weighed! they are going to talk about what kind of person u were! so BE the kind of person u want people to make comments about!

it got me thinking (and writing in my journal) about what people would say at my funeral.
and i realised that in my life at the moment, ED is such a big part of my personality and no one knows that. so they wouldn't talk about it at my funeral. and as glad as i am that it wouldn't be brought up, i want the people who care about me to know everything about me...i really need to fight this so i go back to being the person i want to be so i can show them the true me...
like i said, loved this post - very inspirational!
