A Perfect Body
In case any of you were forced to see That Unmentionable Film this weekend and need your brains cleansed, here's a Flickr photo that nita pointed me to. The caption is a response to women with anorexia, and reads:
"I wanted to tell them that a perfect body is the one that is fully loved. A perfect body is a body that can perform kindness freely. And such body needs nutrition. Perfect bodies feed on love and calories. Preventing one´s own body from being nourished is trying to make oneself evident for the lack of purpose. It´s a selfish act, in my opinion. For our bodies need energy to make this world peaceful, plentiful and joyful for everybody."
Thanks to Flô, the photo's author, for the sentiment. "A perfect body is one that is fully loved." Now that I want on a T-shirt.

Yeah, that sentiment would look great on a T-shirt. :-)
I would love this tshirt too. I just read in our newspaper yesterday about a boss hiring employees who says if he sees bones protruding he knows they are a good hire because they are disciplined. This article really wrecked my day. So it feels good to read such a positive statement.
We discussed that article in the previous post, as a matter of fact!
Duh, I just saw that after reading this entry. The pitfalls of reading backwards.
Now that is a glorious quote. I love it!
