"My body isn't what it used to be but I'm not who I used to be, either. And in a way, for me, it only seems fitting that this body represents the new person I am: I am mother, first and always." ~ From 'My Body Isn't What It Used to Be' published by Mothering the Divide with Kara Lawler Like the epiphanic run I just had, this post will be quick. It's been almost 14 months since my body started healing from pregnancy and birth. It's been an unexpected recovery in some ways, my body has neither regained its shape, weight or strength; but it's shown me it can do amazing things regardless. My mind on the other hand, doesn't seem to give time to the insecurities which plagued me when I started this blog.
Indeed my body is not what is used to be. And today as I ran in an unexpectedly comfortable skin, I failed to remember they whys and hows of what I struggled with before. I am not who I used to be. No, definitely not.
