Your Body Is NOT Your Value:10/23
From the journal October 2023:
This is my body, these are my curves, these are my scars, these are the marks that make me who I am, make my body the gift that it is. I was brainwashed too, but something happens when society tells you that you are no longer important because of your weight or your age, you say FUCK IT and live your life. Then, only in that living you realize…
You don’t need to be thinner or more toned to be more valuable as a woman, no, not at all, not in the least. Value is not measured in inches or curves, no, it is not a calculation, it is not a formula. Value is intrinsic, it is woven into the very fabric of being, into the essence of existence. You must learn to express your sensuality and sexuality, yes, express it, express it in a way that isn’t performative, that isn’t scripted, that isn’t confined to the expectations of others.
To express is to be, to be is to embrace, to embrace is to embody. The most valuable thing a woman can do for herself is to fully embody who she is, to be fully herself, to stand in her truth, to radiate her essence without needing to be attractive in the eyes of the world. Attraction is an external gaze, it is a fleeting glance, it is an opinion that shifts like the wind. But embodiment, oh, embodiment is rooted, it is grounded, it is a celebration of the self, a celebration of the spirit.
Sensuality and sexuality, they are not performances, no, they are not roles to be played. They are a dance, a rhythm, a heartbeat that flows through the veins, that pulses with life. To express them authentically is to shed the layers of expectation, to strip away the masks, to reveal the raw, unfiltered self. It is a reclamation of power, a declaration of presence.
You must learn, learn to express without the script, without the guidelines, without the confines of societal norms. It is a journey, a process, a discovery of what it means to be you, to be whole, to be unapologetically present. When you embody who you are, you step into a space of authenticity, a space where your value shines from within, illuminating the darkness of doubt, of insecurity, of comparison.
The world may tell you otherwise, may impose its standards, may lay down its rules, but you must rise above, rise above the noise, rise above the judgment. Your worth is not contingent upon the shape you take or the image you project. Your worth is woven into your very being, into your laughter, into your tears, into your dreams.
So, embrace who you are, embrace the fullness of your existence. Dance in your skin, revel in your spirit, celebrate your uniqueness. Allow your sensuality to flow naturally, allow your sexuality to bloom authentically. You are more than a reflection in a mirror; you are a constellation of experiences, emotions, and essence.
You don’t need to be thinner or more toned to be more valuable as a woman(or as a person). No, you must learn to express, to embody, to live fully in your truth. For in that embodiment, in that authenticity, lies your true power, your true beauty, your true self. And that is the most valuable gift of all.
