My World. on Tumblr

Life is a bloody battle between your mind and your body; Sometimes a life long war. Two entities contradicting one another, a struggle of profound passion, Your heart caught in the crossfire. Your mind endeavouring to convince you that your body is unloveable, undesirable, unworthy. Your mind is not rotten it has simply been poisoned by a world of people who profit off of your ability to find beauty in them but not within yourself. Through the struggle-some process of learning how to love yourself, You must remember the way your body fought for you even whilst you tried to destroy it. The way your heart continued to beat even when you wished deeply that it wouldn’t. The way your skin covered your bones like a blanket when you wished it would simply disappear. The way your body acted as a shell, protecting your mind, your heart and your soul while you singlehandedly tried to break it. Let the scars that you bare serve as a medal; you have overcome the struggle to self destruct. The wrinkles on your face a reminder that you have endured years of this battle and yet here you stand. There will come a time that you will realize you are on the same team, an armistice proclaimed; a total ceasefire. You will listen to your heart beating within the walls of your chest, You will realize that it is the anthem of your existence, You will take a deep breath and sing along to it. There is nothing more natural on this earth than a human being, simply… being.
