Sacred Life Sunday: Body

November 8, 2009

..and your very flesh will be a great poem and have the richest fluency not only in its words, but in the silent lines of itls lips and face and between the lashes of your eyes and in every motion and joint of your body.

-Walt Whitman

3 Jena { 8 Nov 2009 at 10:58 pm }: Oh how I love that belly. And keep practicing loving my own!

It’s quite disheartening that in today’s society, we’re generally taught that bodies such as that in the picture are “ugly” and “fat.” Thankfully, when I look at it I see a beautiful feminine form. Thank the gods for overcoming early conditioning! (And thank you for posting this!)
