As long as I am alive---I will have my body. As odd as this may sound---I feel like the way I operate in the world is like this---I have my soul. Then I have my shell ( body). I say this because we and people alike judge ourselves by our bodies (shells). For instance you may have a black girl who only discovers areas of the world that look like her---or you may have a woman that looks like a model but has a mind like a scientist---and she thinks she has to forget about her scientific passions. We all judge our bodies(shells).
No matter how much plastic surgery, tanning, weave, botox we get---we may can fool everyone else, but we cant fool ourselves. We should matter most to ourselves, and if we do we should know that we have to take care of our bodies. Its the only one we have this lifetime. I dont get another life nor another body.
Our bodies are so powerful and yet so fragile. You can take the power Kobe Bryant uses with his body and go wow! Then you can take his same body---place it in a car on the 405---and the car gets hit and the body will be damaged, same with a disease or etc. So all in all our bodies are so strong, powerful, and yet so fragile.
Where am I going with this post you may ask? I just simply want to say I have to take better care of my body. I also encourage you all to take one day at a time and listen to your body. If you need rest---go rest, if you need to sweat---sweat, and so on.
I feel that sometimes we dont understand what a machine we have under our beautiful shells. I believe that some of us shy away from getting to know our bodies---and we feel ashame of our bodies. Some people even give our bodies more credit than they are due---like when people cheat on their spouses---because one spouse has physical attributes that their current partner does not have.
We all have beautiful bodies in our own ways. Take care of your beautiful shell ---inside and out. Being overweight simply hides God's creation---and the gift he has given you. This goes for men and women. We all have the same body forms---just different souls.
Let's take care of our gifts from God. Our beautiful shells.
Its all we got this lifetime.
I am not just posting this because I am a actor. I am posting this because sometimes we all move so fast and the years go by so fast that we forget to take care of ourselves until that one day when we dont have too many more days left.
