I just want to have what I consider to be the perfect body. <BR/><BR/>Yeah, 2 time All-American and it still isn't good enough in my eyes. I always think I could have been better. I miss that competition!PTChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05377666179155825301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27277534.post-1151593682012884122006-06-29T11:08:00.000-04:002006-06-29T11:08:00.000-04:00PTC--but, why?????

(had seen your comments on Shaunta's blog) <BR/><BR/>Congratulations on exceeding your expectations. Now, just be careful with the knees! (said from experience) <BR/><BR/>I like the body-creativity part--reminds me of feelings. So often, people (that I work with, that I know, ME!) GET something (i.e., a change we need to make) at a mental level, but it doesn't really click until we FEEL it (and that happens at an emotional and visceral level, which, of course, involves the body). <BR/><BR/>Linda--glad you found it useful. : )<BR/><BR/>Also, to Jinniyah, who commented elsewhere in my blog (but I can't find it. . . because I have only slightly more computer literacy than my dog. . .) thanks for reading and for your support. <BR/><BR/>(cheesy statement ahead) It's really all of you that have helped me to continue to write. I'm, of course, glad that you have found some of it helpful, but your comments and readership have also been quite helpful to me.drstaceynyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11698974154886393241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27277534.post-1151587823537690062006-06-29T09:30:00.000-04:002006-06-29T09:30:00.000-04:00drstacey, this post blew me away.

After spending my life thinking I couldn't run, I realised this year that I can :)<BR/><BR/>Thinking about this I also realised that our bodies are a pivotal part of our creativity. We can invision great things in our minds but it's only when we process those things through our bodies that we can share them with others.Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08699328937978331608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27277534.post-1151522933177276452006-06-28T15:28:00.000-04:002006-06-28T15:28:00.000-04:00My body has done incredible things for me, i.e. ma...My body has done incredible things for me, i.e. make me an All-American athlete, but I still chose to hate it and beat it up. I also still think that I could have been better and wasn't good enough (for myself). <BR/><BR/>I try to be thankful for my health and what I have, but I'm not very good at that. I just want to be thinner and better.<BR/><BR/>Interesting post to think about though.PTChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05377666179155825301noreply@blogger.com
