Naked Ladies
the naked ladies? Also strange - I did not feel fat here. Maybe I was too nervous to notice.
I feel like I am really in touch with my body. Yet, I also have noticed that I hate it. I don't appreciate all it does for me. I judge it constantly, am constantly unhappy with it. Maybe these naked ladies at the spa intimidated me because they did not judge. Their nudity was proof that they loved themselves. My friends and I had fun at the spa, but could not take it seriously because we were so uncomfortable with ourselves.
Maybe I would never be comfortable being nude in public, but perhaps I can get to the point where I do appreciate my body. It has served me well, despite injuries, despite all its imperfections. I hope that someday I can look in the mirror and see its beauty and stop judging it against criteria that can never be met.
