Day Thirteen - A letter to your body

Dear body,


Even though we’ve had a few issues in the past, I’m glad I still have you (although you look a bit different to everyone else) and you’re still able to keep me alive.

You’ve been in the wars a lot during my life, but the fact you’re still in good condition is a testament to how amazing bodies can be.

Thank you for carrying me through times of struggle and happiness, I know life isn’t easy – but the fact I’m still alive is all I need. You’ve survived so much in twenty years, but there’s plenty more on the way – just you wait.

Period cramps are the worst, and sometimes I hate you for putting me through it, but I realise it beats a lot of other alternatives. So thanks for having an effective reproductive system (not that I ever plan to test its validity – but it’s good to know).

Can’t wait to see what the future brings us, let’s hope it doesn’t include more damage to you!


Sincerely,
Appreciative but cautious.
