(110,159 posts)1. i use to say our body was just the metal to protect our inside, as we traveled in life, like a car.
dents are our scars and scratches are our outward imperfection. doesnt mean the machine is not humming healthy and fine.
along the way, we discarded nonperfection. both our cars and bodies must be perfect.
it is all about the perception of, not the reality of what is.
