Regardless of size, putting your life on hold until you reach that perfect weight, does no one any good.
This will be my collection of poems reflecting on societies obsession with weight and size and the effect this has on us and how we can change...
So, I have called this final chapter the same as the first, as I truly am still on this journey towards acceptance.
I've really enjoyed writing this book and have often felt very uplifted with positive messages within the poems. However, reality doesn't always look this way.
Whilst some days I would have been writing about accepting your body, loving your body, I would be feeling the complete opposite.
I know positivity is key, however it is not always possible. And whilst the poems may have been uplifting to some, to others if they were not in that frame of mind, it could make them feel they were failing. Please be assured you are not! We all have those days!
I have decided to end this book on the journey. For we are all on this journey together. There will be good days, bad days and hellish days. WE ALL GET THEM! I want to continue this theme, but in a way that reflects all of the days. Not just the positive ones.
So farewell "A Weight Off My Mind" and welcome "A Journey Towards Acceptance" as I feel this is the perfect title for the next instalment.
Thanks to everyone who has read any of the poems in this book. I really have appreciated every single one of you. And I hope that you will enjoy the "Journey" just as much.
