Thanks S!

clappy

What a glorious affirmation for women to honour and respect their magnificent bodies – no matter what they look like.

I wish more people believe this.

I see they mention  at the top after the title – The campaign, what is it?

A campaign to normalise the differences and say they're ok would be good.

I look at the road map of my body and see my birth warrior wounds and rejoice in each curve, valley and mountain as they are the testament to my living, breathing miracles.

I am not ashamed or horrified by these natural and one unnaturally made lines, they each have a story to tell: my birth by caesarean, my trails and successes breastfeeeding 2 children, my labour of love carrying twins and then suddenly only one remained to be birthed naturally through stretched skin. Each a sign to my courage, my determination, my love and joy of life.

I'm too big for my skin!


Love and rejoicing

Lia
