Welcome back!

Big Girls of The World, Listen Up!

For me, there is something very appealing of bigness.  I like the round pink of my own big body.  Because I understand it’s whys and wherefores, I trust it in myself and in other big people.  I am drawn to it and I tend to be a bit skeptical of emaciating thinness, because to me it means “I don’t dare permit myself to be who I am.  I must be what society thinks I should be because I’m not at all sure of myself.” It’s the unsureness that creates skepticism in me.  I think that if you don’t know who the heck you are, and you have to insinuate yourself into some form so that others will approve of you, you don’t have enough courage unfolded yet to walk beside me and be my friend.

Would I stop on my own spiritual path and help you?  Of course I would.  I just wouldn’t invite you in to my inner circle.  There is something wonderful about loving yourself, accepting yourself, and relaxing into the joy of life’s experiences when you’re a big woman.  You’ve already discovered that the guys you are trying to please are so immature that they base their lives on appearance.  Yuk!  Give me character over appearance any day.

You’ve learned that this is a mental universe.  You know that you can think.  Only mind can think.  This would make you mind, hence mental.  You know that you are here to learn life’s laws and that your body size - whatever it is - doesn’t have a damn thing to do with this learning, so you focus on the learning and to hell with the body size.  Some of you may be surprised to discover that fat girls make it into heaven, too.  I suspect more fat girls make it into heaven than skinny ones, because when you’re fat, you have to learn to get beyond appearance really quickly or the feedback will bruise you to death!  Once you get beyond the immaturity of appearance, you get on the fast track to unfolding a real understanding of who you are, hence, heaven.

I talk about this a lot in my book, “My Cats Have Seen Me Naked: How I achieved Self Love and Self Acceptance While Obese.”  It’s my life’s story - funny, truthful, irreverent, and keenly insightful.  I wrote two workbooks jammed full of deep questions you can ask yourself to help you get to self love and self acceptance too.  You can find the book and the workbooks here. I wish you Bon Voyage and do email me at pat@theworldofwithin.com if you have any questions.

Warmly,

Pat
