Now this woman was 300 pounds & she was the same height as I am, which is 5'6". I sat there for a quick moment, looked at her up & down & then gave myself a quick one over & I said "damn skippy I will!"
My weight back then was 130ish. Anyways, she would come to work and share stories from her weekend rollerskating activities.
She was a large full figure woman. The thought of her having a good time laughing on the skating rink made me think. I said to myself, "damn, if she can get on a pair of skates with her big ass & not give a F, I don't have a damn thing to worry about. I am not body shaming full figured women, REPEAT NOT BODY SHAMING, what I'm saying is that we, us screwed up human beings are our own worst enemies.
She had me laughing so hard that I thought I would pee my pants.
We all underestimate ourselves when we have things going on. It's human nature. We find our defects and we only focus on them.
I'm no Doctor Phyllis but I know human nature. Sometimes it can be something as simple as knowing others are able to enjoy themselves and yet they too have their fare share of issues.
Moral of my post, be happy about the little things.
Have fun, even if its something really simple as enjoying a good book or laughing at yourself for doing the dumb shit we all do. Things pass. We learn how to weather the storms.
