It was a powerful message about identity and something that I hadn’t really got my head around before. And it sparked this reaction in me....
..I’ve let go of some parts of AN but now I need to LET GO of even more
of what I AM NOT and embrace the possibilities of what I CAN be, even if I am
unsure of that that is at the moment.”
I just wish it was easier to do in reality, because it seems to make
sense on paper, when I watch and comment, in this moment, but not generally in life.
But I do find that sometimes that I find hearing other
people talk about their recovery and finding THEIR IDENTITY sparks awareness
for me and the times that I comment as soon as I’ve watched something inspirational ends up making sense.
Jenn’s video tonight sort of reminded me that it is ok to be confused and not
know what makes me, me but... If I keep
hold of any part of Ana, I’ll never be able to know who SARAH really is, what I
really like and what I REALLY want.
The problem here is, that it all sounds lovely and fine
until I just go back to the BUTS.... “BUT ITS NOT FAIR” that I don’t have body, I want it’s not fair
that I am not naturally thin and I wish that my identity was different, that my identity didn't like junk foods
and I wish my identity was better. SIGH. ....Hello there Ana, right?
I suppose it’s work in progress. Bear
with me here.
Maybe you should watch Jenn's video and see if it sparks you to think about your identity too?
