Mindless Muncher
I Am the product of comforting hugs, gut wrenching laughter, and humbleness
I Am the product of societies harsh views on bodies, self image, and self worth
I Am a mindless muncher, proffesional purger, and a caloric chess master
The creation of another part of me, a distorted and contorted image of myself
That I struggle with every single day
But with that comes inner strength
A strength that has glittered within me for as long as I have been on American soil
I will take the good times and the bad times with gusto
Because I know every experience is like an ingrediant
To this incredible recipe, of who I Am today
And today I Am someone who throws out as many who hugs, who never leaves the house without laughter
Who tries- and sometimes fails- to be humble
I Am also someone who bleeds body positivity, who promotes self image and self worth
To the very core
But more importantly I am recovering
I Am a survivor
