Reveal the real you...
Friday, May. 16, 2003 - 17:15

Heh... checking my stats, a couple of people found my diary from Am I Right where I promised more comprehensible things about my life... and must have found yesterday's entry (the song I posted on Am I Right) so sorry you guys.

I saw a poster for a slimming club yesterday. Promising to 'Reveal the real you'.

'Slim and sensational'.

The real me is not slim.

Who am I?

The real me may be shortish, curvy, a little chubby...

My own looks. Me-ness.

The real me has an infinitely complex brain, just like everyone else.

Of course, all our brains are unique, and you'll never see another one of mine.

So why should I spend my time trying to make my body just how everyone wants their body to be?

Why is being 'slim' glamorous? Marilyn Monroe was famous for her curves, was she not?

I do not have Marilyn Monroe's curves. I have my own. Yet glamour does not come from imitation...

Remarkability comes from individuality.

And no one else can try to tell you who the 'real you' is.

Because you are the real you. No rolls of fat conspire to cover you from the world.

Nothing can stop you from being who you are.

And I, for one, am not slim and sensational.

Random word for today: nuance
