My Body Manifesto…

June 21, 2014 by Deanna Tousignant Leave a Comment

It took me almost forty years, and a trip to Puerto Vallarta, to figure this out. I will wear a swimsuit because I want to go in the pool. I will wear the comfy shoes with the wool socks, because I want to walk all day long and I hate blisters. I will dance if I feel like it. I really don’t give a hoot what people think about what I look like. My body is here to move me around and let me enjoy the world, not to live up the expectations of others. Man, I wish I’d clued into this years ago… So consider this the “rules of life” that I wish I had come up with twenty some years ago.
