I read this on facebook and decided to share it with you ladies.
I have not written lately and apologise for my MIA status... so enjoy!
A while back, at the entrance
of a gym, there was a picture
of a very thin and beautiful
woman. The caption was
“This summer, do you want to
be a mermaid or a whale?”
The story goes, a woman (of
clothing size unknown)
answered the following way:
“Dear people, whales are
always surrounded by friends
(dolphins, seals, curious
humans), they are sexually
active and raise their children
with great tenderness.
They entertain like crazy with
dolphins and eat lots of
prawns. They swim all day
and travel to fantastic places
like Patagonia, the Barents
Sea or the coral reefs of
Polynesia.
They sing incredibly well and
sometimes even are on cds.
They are impressive and
dearly loved animals, which
everyone defend and admires.
Mermaids do not exist.
But if they existed, they would
line up to see a psychologist
because of a problem of split
personality: woman or fish?
They would have no sex life
and could not bear children.
Yes, they would be lovely, but
lonely and sad.
And, who wants a girl that
smells like fish by his side?
Without a doubt, I’d rather be
a whale.
At a time when the media tells
us that only thin is beautiful, I
prefer to eat ice cream with
my kids, to have dinner with
my husband, to eat and drink
and have fun with my friends.
We women, we gain weight
because we accumulate so
much wisdom and knowledge
that there isn’t enough space
in our heads, and it spreads
all over our bodies.
We are not fat, we are greatly
cultivated.
Every time I see my curves in
the mirror, I tell myself: “How
amazing am I ?! “
I do not know who to credit for this cute little story but it sure put a smile on my face :)
